Maybe because those people "don't care" about usability, or better said, never got to know what this even means. The young generation was socialized on mobile. They just don't know better so you can treat them like that without consequences.

If you’re on android you can use Firefox with ublock. It’s my biggest loss switching to iPhone, to the point that HN comments are literally the only web page I will visit on my phone. Anything else I wait for laptop access.
Supposedly supposed to get side loading later this year which hope to god means Firefox with extensions on iOS

Also ad buyers don’t mind, and often prefer, deceptive or discrete advertising. Product placement and “native advertising” has been around for decades or maybe even a century.
That's another interpretation. You'd think ad buyers would have a problem with this, but I guess not.
I've begun dragging a small "ultraportable" laptop with me, because it makes a lot of things bearable again: youtube, reddit, stackoverflow ... I'm not sure why people treat mobile users so horribly bad, but here we are.
