"Sorry due to GDPR you cannot view this article."

"Hi - here's 50,000 ads and 1PB of JS loading in your browser and the content jumps around, have fun! Oh btw pls accept cookies from 1,000,000,000 ad networks, kthx".

Most websites consume ungodly amounts of JS, are janky as shit and deplete battery life and consume resources pointlessly and unethically.

If an article loaded as fast as HN does then sure, after all, it's just words on a page like this thread, not hard to render in 100kb of data transfer?

Sadly, because the cancer of ads has infected the internet and we treat it less severely than Covid we get a situation where reading an article becomes choresome.

Fix that then maybe you have a chance but that's why I rarely read the article unless it works on noscript and can load in dial-up style internet conditions. You've got around 3-4 seconds or I'm out.
