I would give you an example URL where it happens but I don't want this post to come off as self promotion. If you really care to look, my blog is listed in my profile.
- KajMagnus 9y agoI went to your blog: https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/docker-swarm-vs-kubernetes-which-one-should-you-learn https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/docker-swarm-vs-kubernetes-wh..., with Chrome 63 and Firefox 57, but no adds are shown to me :-/ I'm on Linux. What can I do to see the ads? I haven't installed AdBlock or sth like that. (If you've been thinking about switching to an open-source alternative without ads or tracking, have a look at EffectiveDiscussions, demo: https://www.kajmagnus.blog/new-embedded-comments https://www.kajmagnus.blog/new-embedded-comments. (I'm developing it.) There's hosting too: https://www.effectivediscussions.org/blog-comments https://www.effectivediscussions.org/blog-comments. Also in the following topic about Disqus getting acquired, there's a list of alternatives: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15851385 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15851385. )
- nickjj 9y agoSince then I upgraded my account to the basic plan which disables ads. There's a nearly hidden pricing option that allows you to enable it for free on sites that get less than 50,000 daily page views and are non-commercial. A disqus engineer recommended I do that on Twitter. Thanks for all of the links. I will check them out. Good luck with your comment service.
- KajMagnus 9y agoInteresting, good to know (for those who use Disqus). Up to 50 000 views is a lot I think.
