I couldn’t get through the article because the website crashed twice when I tried to get rid of one of several modular ad windows covering the article’s content. The modern internet is a dumpster fire, even in articles covering the ways in which the modern internet is a dumpster fire.

Indeed. To be honest, if I didn’t have reader mode on by default, I don’t think I’d use the web at all unless I had to (aside from sites known to not suck, like this one.) Ad blockers simply aren’t enough any more, reader view is the only way the web works for me at this point. It’s truly sad.
