It's been an option for as long as I can remember. I suppose they are leaving the default until websites adapt to chromes changes.
Huh. I didn't have soylent green on my 2024 bingo card.
You & me both. Yes I have a few in the car. No I'm not going back to get it. I'll probably make it without dropping something.
Its just a small, unnecessary moment of tension in my day. And its mine.
The look on his face:
The ad based stuff seem happy to go with click-baity & AI generated content anyway. The people with the purse strings do tend to be stingy. So much genuinely original content gets ripped of, reacted to etc and diluted away. The loss of professional journalism has been a loss to humanity but it's one that we might just have to accept.
Now I'm sad.
Does that mean you (and me) end up drowning in a pool of 90% AI dead internet comments while everyone who stayed on Reddit or Facebook can talk to their friends in their WEI tracked & profiled walled garden?
Shitty choice.
The only solution I can see it robust moderation tools on a platform like Lemmy.
AI still gets to read everything but at least individuals/communities/instances can be blocked for bad behaviour.
What altertatives do we have right now?
