(suggestion) self host docs at docs.electrum.org

[tiagotrs]

electrum.readthedocs.io serves (potentially malicious?) ads.
this would also fix #113

Ah, I had not realised there are ads... No ads if you use uBlock Origin :P

Looks like there are some settings at https://readthedocs.org/dashboard/electrum/advertising/

Documentation Advertising
Opting out

In addition to the advertising preferences we have for individual users, we have multiple ways for projects to opt out of advertising on Read the Docs.

• If you are part of a company that uses Read the Docs to host documentation for a commercial product, please consider Read the Docs for Business which offers a completely ad-free experience, private repositories, private documentation, additional build resources, and dedicated support.
• By becoming a Gold member to Read the Docs, you may remove advertising from your projects for all visitors.
• Project owners can opt out of paid advertisements for their projects. Readers will still see community ads for open source projects and conferences.
• If you would like to completely remove advertising from your open source project, but both Read the Docs for Business and our Gold memberships don't seem like the right fit, please get in touch to discuss alternatives to advertising.

Allow paid advertising:

• If unchecked, users will still see community ads.

If you are a company hosting commercial documentation on our community site, we do not allow removing paid advertisements on your documentation. Please consider Read the Docs for Business or a Gold membership.

@ecdsa
Maybe we could opt out of the paid ads, and only show the "community ads"?
Or maybe we could pay for the "gold membership".
Or I guess we could host our own site too; not sure how much work it would be... - we would need to hook git pushes to auto-update docs too, ideally (as that works now)

reminder: whatever we change here, should probably also change https://electrumx-spesmilo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
