I have come to dread the web. The cookie notices. The pop ups. The randomly refreshng pages. The bullshit SEO fluff. The consistently garish layouts and themes.

For a brief period I found Twitter to be a superior source of information but for a few years now it has been a real chore to slog through the web of shit.

Ad blockers help a lot and they work well. I have multiple approaches to blocking ads and they are all excellent, hands-free, zero maintenance solutions.

One thing I really wish worked better is reader mode. This is a true godsend when it works, but it's too manual a process. I want to see everything in reader mode all the time without a hint of the underlying crap.
