What a fucking dumpster fire of a website.

You surf the web with no adblocker? Interesting choice.

[–] MapleEngineer 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Only on my phone. I use uBlock Origin on my notebook.

[–] Manifish_Destiny 20 points 5 months ago (2 children)

...why?

Firefox for Android allows extensions.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Don't kink shame, some people just enjoy being raw dogged by the web.

I'm old and like Chrome. I will give FireFox a try.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

Firefox for the win. Chrome is ass

On Android... settings/connections/more connection settings/private DNS.

Paste in dns.adguard-dns.com

Use any browser you want, no ads.

Thanks. I'll give that a try.

Odd mine looks much different

[–] MapleEngineer 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Ad blocker? I've never installed one on my phone.

[–] Retrograde 7 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I use ublock origin on my Firefox default but this seems to have opened in chrome since it was a redirect. I'm honestly not sure lol

+1000 anytime I accidentally open a link in Chrome I'm reminded how utterly unusable the "modern" Internet is without ad blocking at a bare minimum

[–] MapleEngineer 1 points 5 months ago

I'm running Chrome.

How is it dark mode with the toggle being off for you? Do you have forced dark mode on?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Probably Dark Reader. It's an extension that makes every page darkmode

[–] Retrograde 1 points 5 months ago

This is indeed the way, as is ublock origin

52$ for pistachio? WTF

[–] nutsack 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

incredible. journalism is thriving

I was so irritated by the postage stamp sizes window into the title of the article that I didn't even notice what they were selling. Maybe they're magical pistachios?

[–] cjoll4 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

huh?

[–] MapleEngineer 1 points 5 months ago

I should proofread when I'm swiping on my phone.
