I'm guessing mobile users who don't pay for apps.

Why are people using the apps that have any ads? There are a million Lemmy apps out there at this point. Most are completely free and no ads

I think most of the in app browsers still load ads on remote sites. Aren't most of them just based on Chrome?

Im sure the browsers and source webpages in the apps have ads. But my interpretation was that people are seeing ads on the Lemmy site itself in these free apps.

I hope that is not the case

We're talking about reasons to comment on posts without reading the article, and the top level comment says it's to avoid seeing ads.
