> Nowadays the internet is pretty decent for all

... what? The web is rapidly becoming more and more unusable. Often, sites only work well when I fully disable JavaScript, and the associated autoplay ads, trackers, custom half broken and CPU intensive navigation behavior overrides, and similar sources of misbehavior.

The modern web is more user hostile than ever before.

I agree that the web is a bunch of potholes with autoplay sound and video, pop ups, in your face ads, etc. I find an adblocker, turning off autoplay in firefox, and pi-hole fix 99% of that. So I don't think you can say "often" that you have to fix things, unless you refuse to use similar methods that I've used. Literally the only site I will jump through hoops for and turn things off for (whitelist) is my bank, and they don't have anything other than a couple of annoying popups.

I find that turning off JavaScript works even better. Ad blockers don't generally disable JavaScript that tries to change how, for example, scrolling works.
