Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun “ban” in Canada (it’s a registry not a ban).

Now I understand this is an ad but I don’t appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.

    Sadly the developer doesn’t control what ads are shown, that’s entirely up to Google Ad Services and what it thinks you’re susceptible to.

      That’s not entirely true. The publisher can still set some rules around what they want to allow, like no gambling, etc.
