At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.
You're viewing a single thread.
Jokes on them I block them on the DNS level.
I'm making a list, and I'll be checking it thrice lol.
Gonna ban all major sites and IPs. The Internet used to be about the small guy not the downtown.
Your meter could use some work but it sings well enough

The In-ter-net isn’t what it used to be.
I don't even need to do that because my country do that "for me" lmao. VPN was the only way I ever accessed reddit at all.
I think the only four I have set to block are reddit, twitter, facebook's products and fandom. A shame those are always the top 10 results from any search.
Wait, why fandom?
Every annoying thing ever invented is embedded in every single fandom page. Ads, twitch streams, ads, personality polls, ads, content gating behind login, ads, sidebars, ads, popups, ads, "share with facebook", ads, "Tweets from thisguy", ads, "Check us out on tiktok", ads, ads, ads and some more ads...
UBlock Origin?
I use fandom for my favourite artists
I've tried. Check how large the list got before I completely blocked the domain a couple years ago. And it STILL let stuff through, as they constantly add more crud that infests the pages. The focus isn't on the content, it's on the revenue... and they push hard on the revenue. I bet every single module has an extensive list of trackers attached.
