   To me ads seem only to negatively UX more than anything. Case in point, I have began noticing a more than usual amount of ads on Twitter recently. I now get a sponsored ad after very 3 tweets compared to the one or two quick ones on every h

   A shameful decision was made. It had to be justified obviously but still not any more or less terrible. BTW Cloudflare is effectively hijacking kiwifarms.net by re-directing visitors to their blog page. When government agencies bust website
