I am very grateful that we had a web with standards, and browsers with extensions. I have adblockers and custom rules to block Twitter ads, YouTube comments, Reddit ads. I can’t do any of these on mobile apps. It’s an entirely closed platform. Imagine if the web was as closed as iOS and Android where apps dictate the experience you can have. This makes me sad. We confused “bicycle for the mind” and built a “cage for the mind”
