...and then you deliver those tens of thousands of lines of JS to a browser running uBlock Origin and 80% of it gets ignored, restoring speed and lowering memory requirements at the tiny cost of not seeing your ads or being tracked by ad networks.
- Bartweiss 9y agoI'm always a bit surprised at how many sites blocking doesn't break. Sure, it occasionally murders some S3 load I actually needed, but for the most part it doesn't perceptibly change my experience. It's a bit alarming that you can kill 80% of a page load without your experience degrading in any way. At that point I'm prepared to call what's happening hostile design - the user's well-being has clearly taken a serious backseat.
