  You’re the outlier, I promise. People are literally forfeiting their brains in favor of an LLM transplant hese days.

    On the flip side, most websites are so ad-ridden these days a reader mode or other summary tool is almost required for normal browsing. Not saying that AI is the right move, but I can understand not wanting to visit the actual page any more.

      Firefox with uBlock Origin works perfectly fine and pages load faster without the ads!

      Maybe I missed something, but ublock still works very fine for me, even on mobile. And running a pihole, while not trivial, also takes care of some ad traffic. Firefox coems with a reader mode (a feature I really like even with the adblockers!).

      So why do people not want to visit pages anymore, if all these tools already existed?

        Most people aren’t technical enough to install an ad blocker, believe it or not.

      i put ublock origin, or another adblock on all my browsers, including phone ones and forks.
