Folks who use Reddit - with the new year there’s always an uptick in weight loss ads, so I wanted to share something I just learned: you can disable “sensitive advertising categories” in your Reddit account/app settings - in the app, here’s how to do it:

* go to your profile in the upper right hand corner
* tap your username under the heading “account settings”
* scroll down til you see the below options, and then disable whichever ones you don’t want to see

Wishing everyone health and happiness in the new year - whatever that means to you, personally ❤️

@leigh Hmm, haven't seen ads on Reddit. Might be a good idea to install the uBlock Origin browser extension? It works across all websites.

@yeroc I don’t leave home without uBlock Origin, don’t worry! Doesn’t work on the apps, though, and I use those in mobile.

@leigh @yeroc is there a Reddit app that you recommend? I got salty after the API restrictions forced RiF to shut down and have been on Lemmy ever since, but I assume there's still some good subs over there
