And every time I learn more about gorhill, I respect him more. Forget looking up to the Bezoses and Zucks of the world as role models, or even the Gates. This is someone who writes software that improves the quality of life of tens of millions of people across the planet, maybe even hundreds. I haven't heard a bad thing about him yet.

The sad thing is that it doesn't have to be this way, if ads weren't so terrible or intrusive gorhill could be working on something else instead. I'm sure people will point out the upside of browser ads but I speculate that it's a net (!) negative.
