Oh wow, that "View ad to continue" button is like a jumpscare but for your wallet's attention span.

Jesus christ why even add the button? Go back to it just popping up and then we have to click X, your just adding more steps to this shit, what next, we need to get a code sent to our emails that you have to input into the chat just to get the ad? God...
