Same thing ui designers. Thats why I resize all the fonts on the page. The probably negates all the UI designers attempts to make the audience go blind

Re:Ask HN: Why are fonts on websites so small?

Re:Adblocking people and non-adblocking people experience a different web

Advertising has gone absolutely bonkers and filled the web with complete trash SEO farms with 40 links to some shitty slideshow
I don't believe the web would have caught on like it did if this current condition was v1.0
I wonder how much the website designer even views their own site. It's astounding anyone would approve of this. It now represents the brand as extremely low quality
