This is why news sites are fatter and slower than ever before
- buserror 11y agoThe interweb is now completely unusable without an ad blocker anyway. All the new 'trends' all lead to more and more annoying behavior too. Like, the off topic video that will autoplay when you scroll down to the bottom of an article... Or the even more annoying 'click to go to my survey' middle screen floater for website you've never visited before (and never will return to, obviously). This one is obviously made to force users to 'click' somewhere and claim some sort of advert click.. Oh, and of course, the EU cookie warning garbage. That's not even mentioning the gigabytes of flash[ing] ads on each sides that luckily AdBlock is quite good at trimming.
