   Just a note as well. I have tried using Duck Go Duck and other search engines. And use adblockers, have used Ghostery right from when it was developed. Most things have been tried.

   I just really dislike the idea that we the people need to use various forms of third party services or apps just to use the supposedly free internet in a way that doesn't drive us nuts or to use it how we want to. So not really looking for a solution, just eternally annoyed.

     Googling and finding information is becoming more and more insufferable these days. The endless bombardment of muddy cookie consents, video links, sponsored stuff and ads.

     Here I am just trying to find a good paint primer from my local market for repainting Ikea laminate. Not the one someone wants to sell me, but the one folks have found to work best.

     In general I am more interested in actual peoples actual projects and experiences, be it about anything. This to me is kind of what the internet has always been for. These days though, not so much. Finding discussion forums and such is becoming more and more difficult.

     Feels like leaving the Big Social ad heavy sites is no longer helping, the same bs has taken over everything.
