That is the problem having too many ads cause the forum lag and unfriendly for users experience.

Mobile is responsive but PC is retarded. Last time got some it/java/html/chrome experts came in to provide some codes and the retardation in the previous forum went away.

For android mobile, give kiwi browser a try. Pretty fast.

I use kiwi for other stuff. Good browser.
If anyone knows how to clone it on Android, like watsapp, do say so. Seems can't so far

For my laptop

For Windows I have Adguard for Windows but I have NOT added any filter to it for filtering in the browser using uBlock Origin is faster than using Adguard for Windows

For my Firefox and LibreWolf browsers nothing has been added to uBlock Origin and the browsers work fast and well

For my Ungoogled Chromium browser for desktop I added the following lines to uBlock Origin filter

forums.hardwarezone.com.sg###sphm_overlay
forums.hardwarezone.com.sg##body:style(overflow: auto !important)

For my mobile phone

For my Ungoogled Chromium for android I added the following line to my uBlock Origin and now the phone has no more 15s lag and it flies now. Nothing else added. See post #306 in the below link

Similarly, I also added the above line to my Firefox for android in uBlock Origin. Nothing else added
Thank you for the filters.

Can't say I'm a hundred percent with the new layout, but that's another discussion. And if and when they come out with the app for devices, I hope it will be better than the previous one.

Actually, whatever lag perceived is really due to ad blockers used.

Remove them and there's no lag -- otherwise, we're not doing something right and that's something we would like to address. Solving the lag issue with ad-blockers is not in any company's prerogative unless there's a different revenue stream.

Having less ads is a question for the management and ultimately it's a free service, so one can't win that argument.

Less intrusive ads, well, it depends what the market (not consumers) and the agencies want.

Tweaking the site to load better/smoother with ads -- that's probably something we can work on it and we've flagged that for improvement.

even in this 'new' forum, ppl will still post their threads at 'chill-out/hangout den' sub-forum instead at edmw :s22:

if you bother to look, the issues you faced already solved by edmw experts on that day of migration.
