I used to use Fight Club 5e to track my character, but that hasn't been updated in a long time. I recently found another app that's in active development, and I'm becoming a big fan!

It's called Character Craft and it has a version for Android, iOS as well as a web version(!).

And where on DnD Beyond you have to pay for any other sources, here you can just load in a set of XML files that you get here: https://github.com/vidalvanbergen/FightClub5eXML

And that should get you all you need. Of course, the downside is that this is not FOSS. But at least the developer is very active and responds very quickly to bug reports and feature requests.

You still see ads on websites? ๐Ÿ˜ณ Switch to Firefox-based browser and get an adblocker, my friend. I like AdNauseam.

While I agree with adblockers, lewd advertising is still a problem for the site.

Don't do shit that makes money for and reinforces the bullshit advertising industry that's been built on top of the internet. I get wanting to poison your data but this is just stupid and just giving money away to shitty companies that use these fucked up advertising techniques.

Oh... Well, I'm sure you know better than the creators of the add-on, so I'll uninstall it now. Thank you.

The add on that you're promoting? What makes those creators so special? Are you one of those very special extension creators that have magic knowledge and loves giving free money to advertisers? Who the fuck would want an extension that simulates clicks on EVERY ad that would've popped up?

Edit: use ublock origin, an extension that actually BLOCKS ads, and doesn't give their creators money...

I just checked, but there aren't any ads on the website. I checked with the creator of the app, too, as I was just talking with him, and he confirms that there aren't any ads on it. So I don't know what to tell you ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜…

Oh, but he did tell me that there's ads on the mobile version of the app, and that he doesn't have control of its contents. I don't see any ads, I rooted my devices ๐Ÿ˜‡

I just uninstalled it. Fight club works well enough. Not dealing with lewd ads in the middle of the app.

[โ€“] toothpaste_sand@lemy.nl 1 points 23 hours ago

Yes, it's a shame you have to deal with that. For in the future, back when I had to deal with unrooted devices, I used Adguard DNS to block ads, which is really easy (and free) to set up: https://techviral.net/use-adguard-dns-on-android/

I can really recommend it ๐Ÿ‘Œ
