I’m talking about the ads that look like listings, but they have a small “AD” text on the corner.

These ads are often grotesque and offensive, and I’d rather not see them at all.

I’ve tried various block lists, but it’s not removing them.

MORE CONTEXT: Sorry, I should have been more specific!

The gross/offensive ads seem to only be in the Aliexpress app (Android).

On the mobile and desktop browser version, I still get the “AD” listings, but they are of products related to things I’ve purchased or browse through (all bike related items). I’d like to get rid of those, too, but I guess the ones in the app are the worst type.

I do have Adguard for Android set to filter HTTPS requests from the Ali app, so I figure it’s just a matter of finding the right filter. Hopefully, anyway!

    Context added to my OP. These offensive ads are only on the app and are completely unrelated to what I search for! They’re like varicose vein removal products and other nasty skin-related stuff.

    But in the browser, I’m still getting ad boxes, they just aren’t the gross type. LOL
