What It’s Like to Be a 13-Year-Old Girl Today
- wholesomepotato 3y agoWould be nice if I could block this domain on HN
- dijit 3y agoI would like to read the article, but it seems aggressively paywalled in a manner that appears distinctly akin to those porn-scam redirects that you come across on the internet. (with the fake notifications from snapchat and tiktok) I think this is an unfortunate consequence of the heading image of the article.
- RugnirViking 3y agoI believe that is the point. It's supposed to look like an overwealming barrage of messages
- c420 3y agohttps://archive.ph/3SNw5 https://archive.ph/3SNw5 Edit: I'm pretty sure those notifications are part of the story. To offer the reader a slice of a 13 y.o. girls existence.
- Animats 3y agoDoesn't help. Mostly blank.
- c420 3y agoScroll down a bit, it looks like the archive truncates the above mentioned notifications making it look like dead space.
- jdbernard 3y agoEven at the archive link the styling hides most of the text. Firefox Reader mode make it visible.
- greenyoda 3y agoThis is what worked for me, on the original article page (not the archive), using uBlock Origin (uBO): - In the uBO dashboard, make sure you've selected "I am an advanced user" (which allows you to block specific domains). - In the uBO UI, click "all" at the top to show all the domains, then block the following domains: meter-svc.nytimes.com and samizdat-graphql.nytimes.com. (Click on the column to the right of the domain name; it should turn red to indicate it's now blocked.) (You can make these changes permanent by clicking on the lock icon in the uBO UI.) After reloading the page, I was able to see the entire article. (Tested in Firefox and Chrome.)
- foogazi 3y agoIt’s an NYT interactive article emulating phone notifications
- r0ckarong 3y agoWhat it feels to be a 40+ y/o web reader today. Paywall and most of what I can see off the bat are stereotypes of the worst kind of thing that people can do with a platform or each other? Now where do I sign up for that offer? Too bad I will not be able to comprehend the point they're trying to make about the abusive way we are being channeled into a behavior pattern by the modern social media conglomerates because this media conglomerate wants me to pay for access to their channel. I still don't know what to teach my child. Thanks a bunch capitalism! EDIT: Sarcasm ... if you ... ah forget it.
- yodon 3y agoAny time one is tempted to post a sarcastic comment, it's good to re-read Poe's law[0] first. It does in fact always apply when posting on the internet. [0]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law
