Have you ever seen a full-screen ad on SG?
On android you can use an adblocker plugin such as ublock origin (the best one) if you switch to Firefox. It's the easiest and best non-root non-network-skills way of blocking ads on android.
I would usually recommend to whitelist sites that you want to support from your adblocker but if they do ads like that I feel it's best to block them for your security and dataplan's sake.

I've always had adblock on so I didn't even realize there were ads until I paid to get rid of them

Is it possible to get ad block on your phone without downloading a special browser?

I haven't seen a full-screen ad on steamgifts before but if I ever see one then I'm immediately going to turn on adblock.

I don't use adblock and I've never seen such weird thing on SG :O

I prefer to use Adblock and pay a few bucks via Patreon instead anyway. This is exactly what I don't want on SG or any other sites.

While I understand companies want (and in some cases need) to advertise, I've never understood why they think "junk mail" and other obtrusive techniques are a good idea. I find such advertising to be counter-productive because it greatly annoys your potential customers.

i use my browser chrome without adblockers because i'm poor and i can't do many giveaways,so the only way i have for support sg for the little that i can is see their advertising... BUT i never see ads like that you show,i only always see a square at the top left of my screen and they never go full page,but maybe i just lucky i don't know

Imagine my surprise when I saw an animated full-screen ad on SG. Is this a new thing or have I just been lucky so far to avoid it?
It said scroll down to view content, but the whole first page was obscured by the ad, basically.
