I am experiencing persistent issues using the forum on Chrome for Android. A popup constantly appears, requesting that I disable my ad blocker, even though I am not using one. This popup makes it nearly impossible to navigate the forum. Ironically, I can only access the forum smoothly using the Brave browser. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and are there any solutions?

This happens when your network is not good. At least in my case. Maybe try clearing browser cache or updating Chrome.
 
I have the same for my Android Chrome. It makes BHW unusable, sadly (while away from my PC). :(

Hey, did you get this working!

I also had Chrome on Android showing a popup about AdBlock, even though none was enabled. Clearing the browser cache and disabling “Lite Mode” (if active) helped. Another tip is to check in Chrome settings → Site Settings → JavaScript and Popups to make sure nothing is blocked there for the forum site. Sometimes it also helps to temporarily set up a different profile in Chrome or use a browser like Brave, as you mentioned. Sounds like a site bug that is triggered even without actual ad blocking.

sometimes Chrome on Android misdetects extensions or scripts as ad blockers. try clearing cache, disabling any content blockers, or using Brave like you did—otherwise it’s likely a false positive from the site.

Thanks for checking. No, it still doesn't work. I tried incognito mode and the popup asking to disable an ad blocker still appears even though I'm not using one. I don't want to clear my browser data, so for now I'm accessing the forum with Brave without issues. Any other suggestions for Chrome on Android?

I think unless you're willing to clear cookies/browser data to give it a go then what you're doing is best. Maybe you can try getting a hold of someone else's phone and try there to see if it works?
