Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites
bluesheep@lemm.ee 1 week agoI’m annoyed by that too, and I think the reason is so they can cram more ads in it. I had to turn of my adblock for a second and forgot to turn it back on while going to a news site and I swear to God 2/3rd of the page was ads. Turned it back on and those spaces were empty making only 1/3rd of the page used. Still way better tho I’m never turning it off again.

No kidding on the ads. I shared this experience not long ago.

And the tragic thing is there was another news site that I did the same thing with afterwards, and it was literally 2.5x worse than what I documented with The Nation.
