Needs an Ad-Blocking Function for Articles – Flipboard: The Social Magazine Review

When Flipboard first came out, it was exactly what I've been looking for. As time passed, more and more articles started supporting ads. It's fine and I understand that the various websites and blogs need the ads to support themselves. But now I can't read an article without a video or an audio ad popping up randomly and interrupting. The 'algorithm' that picks out the articles for various topics are also picking out more 'sponsored content' articles, which are basically a sales pitch. I keep blocking the tricked and thumbs down but that doesn't seem to stop them. This app used to be excellent but it's just annoying now. I'm currently looking for a better alternative.
