aaaand you lost my interest the moment money got involved

all these things are already fixable by browser extensions - what is lacking is exposing that in browser options and even making it the default

  • Do you not believe developers should be paid for the work they do? And if not, what do you think the majority of people on this forum do?

    • Not the GP, but to me this case feels like extortion.

      I have the same problem with paying for extensions like Dark Reader, DeArrow, and any ad blockers. None of these apps should exist in the first place. They were created because the default state of the web is barbaric. And some developers have the gall to charge for the luxury of making the experience tolerable?

      And yet, I've paid for every one of these.
