You could disable the "advertising itself" by not using the javascript code in your footer. As for my users having to pay ~$3 for an app that lets them see thousands of forums I have hard time feeling bad for them after they probably spent $500 on an iPhone or Android + $30+ a month on a data plan and god knows what on actual phone minutes... Someone has to pay for this app after all... If you want you can buy a branded version for your site and give it away free to your users- but it's an expensive investment.

So you can pay for your users or they can pay themselves- no one was going to make an app this big for free- hell it costs hundreds of dollars just to list an app in apple and google's stores to begin with.
