I feel compelled to tell you that most of my old posts here make me cringe now :-) But they show how I was and how much I've grown since. So I hope I'll look back at my new posts in a decade and cringe just as hard. ~ Kirubakaran Jul 24, 2017

Hide Ads On Reddit

Aug 13, 2007

Ads displayed on Reddit are flashy. They call out to the colleagues walking by my cube. I don’t have the luxury of AdBlock as I am forced to use Internet Explorer at work.

So, I use this to get rid of the offending ad:

javascript:(function(){document.getElementById(‘ad’).style.display=“none”})();

You can either copy-paste the code to the address bar when you are at Reddit website or (better) install it as a bookmarklet.

Use ‘open links in new window’ in you Reddit prefs, so that you won’t go crazy copy-pasting this code. It still sucks to check comments. Any ideas?
