On February 4th 2024 (Noon CET) I will present at FOSDEM 2024; the topic is about how I used Revive Adserver to improve privacy and Web Performance.
Maybe I will see you in Brussels? Or if you are interested there is also a live stream
Kind regards;

From Google AdSense to FOSS: Lightning-fast privacy-friendly banners
I run [link removed], the largest and fastest scale modeling website in the world. As such, I need a fast and privacy-aware advertisement solution to best serve my user base.
5 years ago, just before GDPR became applicable I decided to replace my existing Google AdSense solution. While easy to set up, AdSense and other vendors were in hindsight too slow or not meeting my privacy expectations.
The cornerstone of the new architecture became the popular, free and open source (GNU GPL) Revive Adserver (formerly known as OpenX). Without leaking information, Revive Adserver allows me to serve targeted ads without degrading Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) or other Web Vitals.
In this talk you will learn about my design choices as well as interesting techniques and best practices to serve and monitor banner ads performance.

Have you tried accessing it with your ipv4 address/adserver?
Have you seen this thread: 
 

Due to the fact, that this thread is still the top of the Google search for Revive and mobile banners, here is my solution to show banners only on certain devices. Just as described, go to the banner you want to show on special devices and go to the tab "Delivery Options".
Find "delivery limitation" - choose "client - useragent" and "add"
For "Client - Useragent" choose "regex does match"
Enter the following regex for
Tablet
iPad|Android(?!.*Mobile)|Tablet|PlayBook|Kindle
Mobile
iPhone|Android.*Mobile|Windows Phone|BlackBerry|webOS|Mobile
Desktop
Choose "regex does not match"
iPad|Android(?!.*Mobile)|Tablet|PlayBook|Kindle|iPhone|Android.*Mobile|Windows Phone|BlackBerry|webOS|Mobile
Of course detection of useragent won't cover 100%, but this is a good way to catch most of them
 
 

Thanks so much, Isabella. Apparently there was a CSS issue, which is now resolved. So now I can see the banners!
 
Thanks again Isabella, have an awesome day!

Seems the problem is that it's requesting the assets without https.

Is it possible to send multiple site variables? I'm using Single Page Call with two variables (example below)
http://revive-adserver.example.com/www/delivery/spcjs.php?id=1&firstVar=valOne&secondVar=valTwo'
Using the above example, the Site - Variable delivery rule only works for firstVar.
