And it’s always the same, AI-slop looking ad. I don’t even know if I have sleep apnea, I just snore really loud sometimes cuz of my sinus issues.
ublock Origin or AdNauseam is the cure to your ailment. Speaking of quality of life improvements any degoogled or privacy oriented browser is also an improvement. Personally I use Zen browser, not as hardened as other browsers but good enough for me and has nice features and design aswell :)
Sleep apnea and bukake are linked? No wonder…
two and a half decades into the 21st century and you’re browsing without an ad blocker?
I feel like your Norwegian lesson is a subtle ad too.
Sleep apnea is obviously cured by rigorous bukkake.
You get ads? I thought we were smarter than this on Lemmy.
Hey be nice, everyone’s gotta learn something for the first time
They do? Huh… TIL
Some of us are still getting up to speed.
Now tell the AI to generate one weird trick and the the doctors that don’t want us to know about it.
You use Google Chrome don’t you?
I use chrome and there’s working adblockers (ublock origin lite works fine).
I would highly, highly recommend a fork with full UBO, like: https://helium.computer/
Someone came so hard on that AI woman’s face that her skin melted straight off.
Too much pineapple.
“It’s only sleep apnea”
technically it can’t be sleep apnea unless it comes from the Apnea Mountains in the Maldives. otherwise it’s just sparkling sleep deprivation.

No more ads
Or, y’know, any better browser, a firefox derivative maybe even, or just, a different chromium derivative, that isn’t a slop machine run by a creep. Seriously, why the heck do people keep recommending brave?
It’s funny seeing the massive divide between Lemmy and Reddit on Brave. On Reddit, Brave is continuously praised as the go-to browser because they ran a massive astroturfed campaign and got a bunch of redditors to switch. But on Lemmy (where they never ran that astroturfing) Brave is pretty widely hated because the CEO is a piece of shit with a history of doing shady shit.
You can always tell when someone is a recent Reddit refugee, because they’ll mention Brave and immediately get shouted down. And sure enough, the person’s account is only like two weeks old.
How recent is this history. Because I remember many years back now something like an AMA or some other post by the CEO of Brave, promoting it ahead of it being released I think and getting a pretty frosty reception on Reddit once people asked a bit more about how it was supposed to work. As time went on the reception seemed only to get worse as rumours spread of crypto scams and dodginess and even just on a basic level, questions of “why would we use this when we could just use Firefox with an ad blocker?”
I get the impression though that Reddit has been changing.
Only the ones from brave. Bonus: crypto bs
You can just not use their crypto?
You can just use a firefox derivative or even a different chromium derivative?
You can also just not look at the ad.
You could just let people make their own decisions without being a giant cunt about it?
We want people to make their own INFORMED decisions about things. Therefore we let them know that brave browser is run by yucky crypto bros.
Awful lotta cunt over here
What site is this?
Uhhhh lingohut.com I believe
Respectfully, how the fuck do you not have an adblocker in 2026?
Hvordan går det med norsklæringen?
Det går veldig bra, takk! Allerede lærer jeg ord for klær og smykker :3
Bare å sende meg meldinger om du ønsker å øve litt og få tilbakemeldinger, jeg hjelper gjerne! 😊
Brå gjort, fortsett sånn!
Tusen takk!!! Er du norsk eller kan du bare snakke norsk?
Familien min kommer fra Norge men jeg kan snakke bare en liten Norsk
Ikea meåtbåll
Thats the swedish u silly bean!
A Møøse once bit my sister … No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: “The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist”, “Fillings of Passion”, “The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink”.
And ghostery if you want to avoid the cookie popups (auto denies).
Ghostery was involved in some weird info-selling controversy, weren’t they?
Edit: I looked it up. Yup, they were selling info about the trackers they blocked to the tracking companies they were blocking. So those companies could then figure out how Ghostery was blocking them, and circumvent it.
Apparently after that, they had another controversy where they started inserting ads to show to their users. Somehow that feels even worse, because the users who had it installed were trying to avoid things exactly like that.
Ouch! Any replacement you would recommend?
Consent-O-Matic is great, essential, in my opinion! Along with uBO, they are the 2 extensions I never use a browser without. (Except when forced to use Edge for some tasks, at work)
This really is the correct answer. I also beg you to install Ublock origin.
I too choose this guy’s uBlock Origin.
Dude, that’s … A reference.
And my uBlock Origin.
TBH I still cannot believe there are people using the internet without ad block in 2026
Seriously, it’s not just annoying, it’s a big privacy issue.
As long as they are used to spread malware, they are a cybersecurity risk as well.
Fun fact: it is trivially easy and costs $0 to track an individual through their ad identifier. They’re not supposed to uniquely identify people, but you really just have to drill down like a dozen or so variables and you’ll uniquely identify just about anyone with a smart phone.
Hey, random person for whom this describes, are you
-Aged 30-34 -White -Male -Educated -Spends a lot of time near you work address -Spends a lot of time near you home address -Spends some time where you vacation the exact time you usually vacation there -Is a 49ers fan -Likes artisanal coffee -Android user -Listens to late 90s and early 00s metal -Wears pants size 38/32.
Guess what there’s like 3 of you in the world. And we can get all 3 ad ids in the real time bidding market and track all 3 of you until we deduce which one is you.
Now I know where any person for whom I perform these steps is located, basically in real time.
It’s that bad. It’s a well known issue with I guess too much money behind it to fix? Idk.
I think most people on the internet don’t even know what a browser extension is. Most people are not very interested in customizing or tweaking their computer beyond “push this button, stuff I want comes out.”
I put it back on and it’s working, thanks for reminding me
Dont worry, I will always be the snarky asshole who talks down to people for not being like me any chance I get

Fair, I used it for the site but it kept not playing the audio
