Annoying Tumblr Ads - Tumblr Posts

Here in 2024 on mobile this just happened to me after a fucking year and half of being on here without it. And it literally plays after I've left the app. This is ridiculous! @staff you guys need to change this!! Or at least tell us why this is happening if it's not on purpose!

So Tumblr is now Autoplaying Ads?

When I go to my Tumblr Dashboard an annoying ad starts playing (it sounds like a video ad and of course is very loud) - but it is invisible so I can’t even figure out how to disable or stop it. This annoyance started today. Anyone know how to stop this?  I use Google Chrome. Any help would be most appreciated!
