I tried reading this article with genuine interest but the page crashed for me on iOS :(
This seems to be happening more often in the back half of 2024. IGN crashes nearly every page view for me these days.

Here was my experience on an M1 Mac Mini with 16GB of RAM, in Safari with no extensions:
This is why I have absolutely zero qualms with using an ad blocker to the fullest extent I can.
I hate what these people do to computers.
Ironically as I watched your video on Imgur, a full screen ad popped up over top of it on Imgur itself :,(
I could host videos myself if I still had a 2 gigabit connection but that was left behind in my most recent move.
I can't load the page at all without the extensions. On AdGuard I'm using only the content blocker filters that don't have access to the page itself, not the advanced filter which does.
The AdGuard content blocker is my favorite for Safari even on desktop. I can't imagine browsing without it enabled.
2. Use Privacy Badger.
3. Block Google Tag Manager.
All popups gone. Page works fine.
Privacy Badger warns that some sites won't work with Google Tag Manager blocked, but in practice, that does not seem to be a serious problem. Although some will route you through Cloudflare's CAPTCHA barrier for that, you can still get in.
If a site won't work with strong ad blocking, I stop using it.
PC choices are obvious, for ios I’m using AdGuard app that integrates as Safari content filter (blocks almost the same as ubo).
I was just demonstrating how shitty the site is if you aren't using any blockers.
I was reading this article on an Iphone some hours ago. But gave up because of the ads.
No, it’s not a separate “adblock browser”. It works as a content filtering rules source for Safari. It does not see what you’re doing or visiting (unless you insist in the settings).
Here's a nice intro review of a Hall Effect keyboard, from Switch and Click, which explains its features and differences compared to a normal switch keyboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNANUquoXOA
Hall effect switches have been used in model railroading for a couple of generations now. Very often to stop and start engines in hard-to-reach places with a wand.
Here's an explanation: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

Hilarious that anti-annoyance software is now needed, not only to make sites nicer, but to make them functional.
It's not hard to design beautiful and usable websites, which works on all devices from the past 10-15 years.
