you forgot tum/b/lr and twitter, biggest bastions of online hate ever.

youtube after google bought it

facebook was rather the deathblow which dragged all normies on it

Before that they maybe read some mails and the newspapers and that was all

first it was the ads
then it was the anti-adblockers

especially for the big domains
like, fuck you, man
you have more money than your readerbase; why do you need my adblocker off

also before google bought it

>Turn off my adblock
>Virus ads appear
Who the fuck conditioned people to think that site's okay?

fpbp

It was cool when it was a dating service. It's original design

>Who the fuck conditioned people to think that site's okay?

No one thinks it's okay, but the shitheads who use to get money from their download links don't give a fuck.

How do you think they made their money in the first place? Idiot

The money.

Cloudflare
Google captcha
responsive website design

imageshack
photobucket

Ad.fly wasn't the first service of its kind. Just one of the more popular ones.

Also, any monetization of the web only increases the possibilities of it. If there was no money to be made, no one would care about it.

This was fine until got infected with sjws, furry fags and what not...

Buzzfeed actually has good article though.

I love those ''mind bending'' ''you won't believe" Buzzfeed articles. What would humanity do w/o it.

Any site that won't load without enabling javascript

I don't see a problem with adfly, it lets developers get money out of otherwise free projects

xda-developers
apple.com

Fuck...

i actually can't think of anything worse than this piece of shit

it also has a million clones

Buzzfeed

Any website that ends with .in

facebook

>>Any website that ends with .in
how about any website that ends with .io

Sup Forums stopped being newfag academy long time ago bud.
Normies go straight for the jugular nowadays.

That too

What exactly is the jugular in this metaphor?

This

other more mature boards.

Blockadblock.com

search engines
social media sites
every site that forces you to enable js to view it

AOL.com

Facebook and clickbait sites.

Impartial about Reddit. The site and most communities are absolute cancer, but some "niche" subreddits are actually a decent place for discussion.

not a website but lately (as in the past 5 or 6 years) it is smartphones

Not just the internet. They made the whole world a worse place.

>reddit
because every single site having their shitty drupal forum and poor credentials security with "hack from russians" every other month was so much better

medium.com

>Ctrl+f
>"Pinterest"
>0 results
Apply yourselves

Pintrest

It seems when i install vivaldi the default search engine is yahoo and its default picture search redirects to pintrest. God damn that site is trash...

lol ! i litterally posted a few microseconds after (You)

Tiny subreddits are fine but Reddit is absolute cancer.

>reference contest for maximum upboats
>heavily censored news-section
>subreddits revolve around fanboyism, all criticism (even valid) gets downboated and marked as spam
>sjw ceo defending censorship

You seem to be too knowledgeable about Reddit, go back.

How do you even use Pintrest? I really don't understand that website at all. Is it social media, or what?

yeaha pintrest is an image hosting platform where the social media functions and tie ins are considered more important than actually hosting any images

it wont let you do shit without an account its just vomit inducing trash

cant refute

FUCK cloudfare
FUCK google
FUCK facebook
FUCK leddit
FUCK Sup Forums
FUCK 8ch
FUCK almost every media source on all sides, including breitbart

It doesn't matter though, if it's not them it's someone else.

YOUTUBE AND ALL OF IT'S CLONES

CONTENT WAS SO MUCH BETTER WHEN YOU HAD TO ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE DOING TO MAKE OR VIEW IT.

>ddos attacks are extremely easy to perform today and get your site terminated by the hosting company so it doesn't affect other customers
>ddos protected hosting easily costs 400$+ a month
>cloudflare cockblocks 99% of kiddie ddos attempts
How is it bad exactly?

>Website that has effectively not changed in its 14 years of operation
>bad
Sup Forums is a goddamn glowing beacon of good web development, MySQL errors be damned

swfchan.net/collections/f_classics--231/
There you are now an /f/ oldfag

>If there was no money to be made, no one would care about it.
But that's wrong. Money is a means to an ends, not the other way around, silly jew. If people care about something they're willing to spend money on it. Your way of thinking is poisonous and sickening, to be quite frank.

This would have been funny and edgy maybe 5, 6 years ago. If anything the internet has made Sup Forums a worse place

...

Cloudflare also hosts all booters. Meaning they play both sides and keep their businuess running nicely by protecting the ddosfags.

HTML is inherently responsive, and that's a good thing.

any social media website

So whats wrong about cloudflare?

>not knowing javascript code to bypass adf.ly wait timer

kek

cloudflare is the biggest SSL/TLS mitm attacker ever, and nobody cares

inherent HTML responsive (content naturally fits browser width) != designfag responsive (totally change layout and/or styling above/below certain viewport sizes

I feel like I need a more mature answer after seeing you post adfly. I was first thinking of something like facebook.

teach me senpai

>Not using an userscript to bypass it automatically

LMAOing @ ur life

You bet your ass I'm not going to let a 1920px filling horizontal navigation stick around on a vertical phone. Hamburger slide in menus are a meme but it's functional and built specifically to solve a problem instead of just letting your shitty website display incorrectly because what everyone else does is simply too popular. If you think the right should be allowed on a phone you should get the fuck off this board.

pinterest

>downloads for piracy
>adfly

Literally making money on something that is not yours to begin with

Good thing anti-adfly scripts exist

facebook is on its way to making the world a worse place. The internet is just fine.

Netflix

Probably the primary reason net neutrality is a thing that needs to be discussed

that's not what he said

did they get rid of the filter for that site?

Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and any other social media website.
9gag, Buzzfeed, Reddit and other "meme sharing" sites where normies reside.
Any "news" media site for spewing biased bullshit propaganda (Huffpost, Brietbart, CNN, Washpost...)
Youtube, for allowing lazy bedroom slacktivists to make a living off rambling into a camera.
Any community funding sites (kikestarter etc.)
Sup Forums for being home to a bunch of pedo weeabo fags
Dating sites, including Tinder, for inflating the female ego. Same goes for Instagram, Snapchat and similars.
DevianArt, for hosting the absolute worst drawings I have ever seen.
Google, for monopolizing search engines and pretty much everything they touch.

All of those mobile website popups

You know, those who redirect you, make your phone vibrate and unable to close

That's what happens when adblockers aren't really a mainstream thing in smartphones, pure insanity and greed

All of them.

I agree. The only people the ads exploit are those who are vulnerable to these sorts of things, who tend to be elderly, or young kids, or people with weak minds. Disappointing, but money can make people do anything.

Facebook for basically creating the modern social media phenomenom, made it a norm for the masses to share real life information instead of thinking security first, created a culture where literally everyone is encouraged to constantly spout retarded shit and think narcissisticly highly of themselves, and made it with Google an ok thing to stalk your users in an unfathomable scale.

Modern news sites for displaying nothing but a simple html page with an article's worth of plaintext, yet requiring thousands of lines of code and dozens of different JS scripts for each page load.

Any web site that falls in love with with technology, and instead of making it simple and lightweight, fills it with fancy yet redundant scripts and features that require a decent cpu to even run, and has the size in megabytes even if disregarding any possible pictures.

Any site that requires you to register in order to browse.

Pinterest
You cant search something on google without getting a bunch of useless links of pinterest

Probably because Sup Forums is fucking "how can wite bois evin cumpeet?"-shit tier cuckold threads that won't be deleted but regular threads with effort will be after like 2 minutes
