If you're seeing ads, you've installed a malicious version of Voyager. Stick to the links in the sidebar or install from FDroid.
Something is very wrong with whatever app youre using! I love voyager and get no ads, no popups ever.
There are no ads in voyager. What you’re using isn’t voyager.
I was imprecise, I meant when I click a link and the native browser displays the the page complete with ads.
You mean in the embedded browser? Assuming you're on Android, install AdAway or another hosts-based ad blocker that applies system-wide. You could also set your system DNS server to one that blocks ad domains.
Either that or open links in a full browser that has uBlock Origin installed. To switch, go to Settings - General - Other - Open Links In - Default Browser.
In Voyager: Settings>General>Open Links>In Default Browser
Then just make sure your default browser has an adblocker, like Waterfox or similar
This is the way.

Ya’ll are getting ads?
Try setting this up:
I was imprecise, I meant when I click a link and the native browser displays the the page complete with ads.
Use a browser (like Firefox) that allows you to block ads. As far as I can tell this also works for the In-App-View-Mode of the browser.
