  This is super intentional. Look for the Fitts law en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts's_law

  Maybe if they didn’t use very intrusive ads people would not install ad-blockers so much

  Many website put a video playing in later in top of the text, with another layer of ads and tiny space to read… the website would be unreadable without ad-blocks

  I don’t know. I understand some good devs are paying the price, but…

  Here in US apps are allowed to external links. Before I was opening and app, subscribing and canceling in the seam month if I wanted

  Now DAZN (sport streaming) is forcing users to give 30 days notice. So if you use for a day. You need to pay 2 months.

  I would prefer to pay 30% more than 100% more to use DAZN for a single month.

  Problem is if you have family on other countries most use WhatsApp for everything, it’s hard for some to not have any Meta app.

  I bet a lot of people will slow because they will not read it or not really understand what they are accepting. Some will even share the new AI creating as something nice while they are giving up their private photos to Meta
