“The Modern Web” 🤦‍♂️

• Trash ads everywhere
  
• Over 1 min to load the page!?
  
• 100+ Errors
  
• Total object count never stops increasing
  
• “This webpage is using significant memory. Closing it may improve the responsiveness of your mac.”
  
• Page eventually crashed
  

@Burk Yup :-(

@AlanRalph @Burk @simonwoods It’s even worse on mobile (someone linked to something on FastCompany the other night); they throw all sorts of crap on top of the content! “No, we really don’t want you to see the article we wrote; we only want you to see our ads and our newsletter subscription prompt.” :-P

I need to put them on automatic Reader Mode just like Medium, for when I inadvertantly follow a link.

@simonwoods @Burk Yup. And why you aren’t a real web browser (user agent in W3C spec parlance) if you don’t include a reader mode and support for content-blocking….

@Burk All the more reason we need good developers and designers to help fight the good fight. 🤷‍♂️

@AlanRalph @Burk @simonwoods Looking for something else on my blog tonight, I ran across this wherein I’d taken a screenshot of FastCompany’s awesome website on mobile :-P
