I work in advertising, so I think using Ublock Origin is hypocritical (and it seems is not permitted by my employer's security policy.)
I can't find documentation for any "--light" flag, so it's unclear what that does / if it still works. But I appreciate the suggestions.
- anthk 4y agoWell, your industry it's generanting the same problem you are ranting at. ADs will crawl down any browser.
- anigbrowl 4y agoI'm curious, what if you try running Chrome's Task Manager (shift-escape on Windows, idk what you're using). Cause I noticed things like gmail are pretty well behaved and just sit there, whereas Twitter takes up nearly twice as much memory and grabs a bunch of CPU time every 20 seconds. If you're not running an ad-blocker I would expect that any site with heavy ads/tracking is impacting performance. I work in advertising, so I think using Ublock Origin is hypocritical I sincerely think that your industry makes the internet way worse than it needs to be.
- anthk 4y agoTwitter back in the day had a web page (m.twitter.com) which worked everywhere, even under Links2 with the graphical UI. If the reason it's "the user can't be tracked equally without a JS Big Brother behemoth", then they don't understand how cookies can be used for that, or by just parsing the user tweets and preferences.
