Got my boomer mom to finally install an ad blocker. She was tired of looking at a webpage, having an ad give some kind of script run error, and then it reloads back at the top. It’s a big problem on the cooking websites she goes to.

I would rather go back to the days of shitty pop-ups you can just close. These ads are far worse, and none of them even make sense.

the cooking websites she goes to.

https://based.cooking/ doesn't have everything, but it's growing and the site is very clean.
