JDownloader2 asking for donations to keep it "free of advertising" while showing an ad on the same screen
It also says "free of installer bundles" while (at least in past, don't know about now) their default windows installer was including ads (source)
P.S.: If you want to disable the in-app ads, here's how to: https://gist.github.com/yunooooo/87564a0293a1c7a53fb3e233a604c638
You're viewing a single thread.
I wrote a blog post about how to remove the ads and enable dark mode for JDownloder2 here.
Oh nice, dark mode. Thanks
Thanks I just did that right now. It's so nice having the Ad banners gone, and also a nice and well functioning dark mode too.
You can also get it to use your KDE theme if that is more your thing
Edit: gtk theme, not kde
How?
I was mistaken and said KDE rather than GTK theme but you just need to add this add an environment variable before the operator on the desktop shortcut file and it should work

I didn't know that. I'll try that and maybe make an edit and mention of it in that blog post
