I didn’t realise how bad the ads were until I used a browser other than Safari. I kept on being told I had Adblockers enabled on every website I went to, and they refused to show me the content.

I then disabled the privacy protection features of Safari and realised that most of the websites had so many ads that they were completely unusable. It was easier to get the content using Safari Reader Mode than the unblocked website with ads visible.

The new “hide distracting items” feature does make a lot of pages readable to the point where you can realise that the published content is all shit.
