        wasn’t the candy crush one notorious for being always reinstalled with every minor update?

      No. I’ve never seen an ad.

      You can easily turn these off in lots than a minute according to a quick Google search.

  • Don’t get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
