How the web became unreadable

Reply in thread

This is why I whitelist duckduckgo in firefox in my ublock extension. I will gladly look at the relevant ads at the top of the list, knowing they are just that. I glance at them, most of the time it's a sales pitch, I go "not interested" and just move down the page to the results. 100% fine with that.

How the web became unreadable

Reply in thread

I'm working on a home project, so when I search on ddg for "how to build raised garden boxes" I get some "shopping" links with the word "ads" right next to it clearly visible, which I instantly skip over, then two text results labeled clearly as "ads" then the actual results. One text result is a sales pitch for a premade garden box and the other is a link to a video instruction (which I'm assuming will also have a sales pitch) so I can easily skip over those two links and now I'm at the results. No video or sound at all and it's all labeled as such for me. I'm using a default "dark" theme under the appearance settings.

Which subreddits would you most like to see on Lemmy?

Isn't this the overarching problem with lemmy just in general though? I mean, I'm loving it here, but without GOOD moderation any community, no matter where or how it's hosted, can become very bad very quickly. I'm not blaming you all at all!! I completely understand where you're coming from, but this is the same scaling issues that mastadon faces right? Is there any idea about how to address this?

What launchers do you use?

I just played my first hour! ITS SO GOOD OMG...

but back to the topic lol.......... Yes I WAY prefer the lutris method to get battle net going. You just one click install it basically, whereas on steam it's a whole process of finding different launching files, etc... Much worse.

BUT AGAIN D4 IS SO GOOOOOOOOD
