A good idea but very expensive from the Republic of Ireland. Every financial transaction with a UK recipient or UK Bank incurs a charge of €15 as this is deemed an international money transfer. Partly explained by anti money laundering legislation.
Sorry, but unless the adverts change from ladies underwear to male things like guitars or power tools, I am out.

Even so, solutions for avoiding them are legion (no returns) and well documented.
They do charge 2.5% extra since you're paying in a currency other than my Patreon account's currency, though, which comes out at roughly 10p.

Also, demanding advert changes that suit you alone for misogynistic reasons is not a good look.
Clear your cookies on all devices and then search for manly things like the Blue Oyster Bar instead.

Basically, we use Patreon as a way to handle recurring subscriptions without having to get a merchant account, payment gateway account, deal with recurring payments ourselves etc. They take a heckin' chunk of it, but it's worth it to not have to build and manage the infrastructure to do that myself.
Also, you don't just get an ad-free experience - you also get the ability to upload images directly to the forum, rather than faffing around with Imgur/Dropbox/Google Drive. That's mainly because I hate the idea of dumping ads on everyone and then charging to get rid...I'd rather subscribers got extra functionality.
Subscribers also get a decent discount on tFB merch, like the neck rests and pedalboard kits.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
