    Because why would I read an article that’s probably riddled with ads, when I could read a quick unbiased fact in the headline (edit: and an image) and get expert commentary in the comments (that often builds upon or refutes the article anyways)?

      Run an ad blocker. Firefox + uBlock origin does wonders.

      Reading the article is a prerequisite to not being taken by disinformation.

        Better off running a pihole, block at the network level.

          adblockers have been a thing on iPhone for years, even I know that and I don’t have one. How are you this ignorant?
