FYI the browser I use does not download resources automatically. This way I just get the page with the content: the text of the article. That is all I want. To read articles, which are just text, I access the web in VGA textmode with a text-only browser. I never see any ads. There is no such thing as "load time" with this "UX". All pages load fast. I do DNS lookups in bulk and store IPs before doing any HTTP requests, so I take time consumed by DNS out of the equation. I do not store IPs of ad servers, Facebook domains serving hidden beacon images and other nonsense. I never access these resources. If I want to look at images or watch videos, I download them and use other programs running on other computers with graphics to view them. Those computers have no gateway to the internet. For someone who likes to read, it all works very well. But if I was forced to use a "stock" browser of some organization's choosing (Google, MS, Apple, Mozilla, etc.), then perhaps I would have a very different "user experience" - heaps of ads. I suspect this is because those organizations place advertisers before users. If the ad sales business were to dry up it would be a disaster for some of those organizations. Fortunately, I do not need those browsers to read the news.
