Comment on advertising and headers take up 50% of screen space

Advertising being allowed to become the dominant monetization method for the internet was a mistake.

I’ve never seen anything that makes most of its money from advertising that doesn’t get worse and worse for it over time as a result. Once you let the advertisers in they will ruin whatever it is they are being allowed to leech off of. Might take 1 year, might take 20, but once they get that foot hold they will run it into the ground because like a billionaire and money, it is never enough.
