Comment on I hate using mobile to read articles
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 9 months agoOne thing I’ve learned from history is that there’s plenty of examples of things that happened that writers wouldn’t use for fiction because audiences wouldn’t believe it.
I sometimes wonder who is willing to put up with this shit if I end up on the internet without an ad blocker. I don’t need to put ad blockers on a list of essential tools because the internet without ad blockers reminds me very quickly to go get one.
The fight against ad blockers is IMO actually a fight against having a useful www because the more intrusive an ad is, the more likely I’ll just go do something else.

Yeah, I will not be a part of being forced to watch ads. Whatever they do to force ads, there will be a way around it and if a site makes you use chrome so they can force ads, then I won’t be doing shit with your site.
My local utility company makes you use chrome to pay your bill online. I call every month and waste someones time taking my payment. I refuse to put up with bullshit.

They shouldn’t force you to use a specific web browser to use the website properly. Google Chrome shouldn’t be the new Internet Explorer 6.
