     @nerdtronics @p @mint To use Reader Mode, you have to load the webpage with the trackers anyway. If you don't want that, you can use FrogFind:

     http://frogfind.com/read.php?a=http://example.com

     Just replace example.com with whatever URL you are viewing.

     What to normies will put up with lol. Not only do I use ublock, but most modern browsers have reader mode too that cuts out all the clutter.

     With most of these sites they want you to get a subscription to make all the ads go away.

     @nerdtronics @james @mint The ads still don't go away, I suspect.

     @mint @p Or, you could use Ad and Tracker blockers (and a good enough browser, probably LibreWolf), and you won't have to deal with all of this. Surprised they were okay with their user experience going down.

     @james @mint The point is that this is what the web is without those things.
