Typical website in 2018
- jchw 8y agoI think we need to remove notifications from web browsers except for PWAs. I don't want to be notified about hot new deals or some random news site just because I was passing by, I'm guessing basically nobody does
- petepete 8y agoAs usual, the second marketing get their grubby mits on a piece of technology it gets abused. How long did it take for pop up blocking to kill of pop up ads? And now we have exactly the same thing going on inside the page where it's much more difficult to block.
- drivingmenuts 8y agoFirst thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hmarketers.
- sebazzz 8y agoWhy is it more difficult to block? You need to give permissions first, at least on desktop.
- petepete 8y agoI mean the 'things' that appear on web pages, the prompts to sign up for newsletters, accept cookies, create accounts, install apps. They are difficult to block because they're part of the document (rather than a new pop up window) and can be implemented a million and one ways.
- nobody271 8y agoI don't. If I cared that much I would just use an RSS reader or news alligator.
- masonic 8y agonews alligator did you mean aggregator?

- OrderlyTiamat 8y agoFeedly sends it's regards, it's a good experience as opposed to this.
- raphlinus 8y agoIt's missing the Net Promoter Score survey. Other than that, pretty spot on.
- amaccuish 8y agoThey missed the "read this article even better in our app", but otherwise spot on
- aequitas 8y agoIt is unreal how fast that privacy settings dialog disappears after clicking the acknowledge button. Normally these need a good half minute to infinity to stop blocking half you view.
- Doxin 8y agoThe weirdest thing to me is that some sites present you with a spinner for minutes when you click accept. Who thought of that? why is it taking so long? what is it even doing?
