IdiotMachine 05/01/24 11:51:14 AM #1:	Even with AdGuard, the modern website experience sucks ass. Idk who actually likes it: 1) Visit a website. 2) Accept all cookies, or read the entire work of Homer to accept specific cookies. 3) Deny location sharing request. 4) Deny notifications request. 5) Start browsing the website. 6) A random video starts playing in a corner that travels with your page scroll, and you have to wait a few seconds for the x to pop up to close the video. 7) A random pop up comes up to ask you to sign up for their newsletter to get a coupon or whatever. If you put your email and hit next, they ask for a phone number next. 8) Fucking FINALLY browse the god damn website. Why the fuck do I have to do all this? Why cant I just browse the god damn website? I cant imagine visiting a website without AdGuard how much worse is it? EDIT I forgot one more. Some websites do a goddamn pop up to get you to install their app too, that you have to reject. --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png <cite>IdiotMachine posted [p:980187000] in I seriousl...

Solar_Crimson 05/01/24 12:08:46 PM #10:	[LFAQs-redacted-quote] This is especially bad because the more reputable news sites are being paywalled. But not the right-wing, conspiracy sites. Meaning that those sites are much more accessible to the general public. --- "Be good to yourself, because everyone else in the world is probably out to get you." - Dr. Harleen Quinzel <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:980187280] in I seriousl...
