    Adverts online. It’s a relentless bombardment and I’ve no patience for them anymore, especially video ones or reddit posts pretending to be a genuine consumer who just OMG LOVES this product

      Yup pretty much ruins all social media. Monitzation of products, of emotions, of deeds. It’s endless cringe of idiots wanting to be famous or plugging the death out of everything.

      Not able to drink your water properly, I have this tool that I love that helps your non existent problem (que stupid face acting. Blah blah it’s not a glass, it’s like a glass but it’s not and lovvvve it. Type gullible in the comments for a link to buy it at a stupid price.

      This is a good one. The internet has become unusable without using the proper tools. It’s pretty crazy how advertisements can show up anywhere at anytime.

      Adblockers have been common and extremely easy to get for over 20 years… Why would you choose to not use them?

          Personally I’ve uninstalled most apps and use web apps instead, limiting both advertisements on services, but also notifications, causing me to doom scroll on different apps a lot less than before, but it being more pleasant when I do.

          Yes.

          I’m my case I paid for Adguard, but I think there are other options as well. Hopefully someone else chimes in with more options such as dns etc for device-wide blocking.

      In order to have lost patience with those, I would have had to have had patience for them at some point in the past.

    Folks who don’t respect the silence in an environment created for silence. Examples are loud conversations in the silent coach on the train, or similar in the medical waiting room. There are people who just don’t understand that noise pollution is a problem and dismiss it as antiquated thinking.

    Republicans. Fascists. Nazis.

    They’ve had… I dunno, all of human history to figure out that their viewpoints are fucking stupid. I’m done being nice.
