- halotrope 11y agoYes. I think the chrome added by ads and "bullshit" can be mitigated by adblockers, reader modes and careful selection of content. The sometime abysmal STR of some articles is far worse. Usually you have to invest at least a little time into figuring out if something is legit or a complete waste of time.

- Houshalter 11y agoI thought that was bad, but I noticed adblock was blocking 67 things. I turned it off and it is truly awful.
- FilterSweep 11y agoSadly, 67 things is actually low for most Alexa Top 1000 trafficked websites.
