I know it's been said many times, but I truly miss the old internet. Fuck this homogeneous, corporatized, spyware ridden, ad infested, data harvesting, soulless, pile of fucking dogshit called the modern internet.

With terrible UI on top. Like seriously YouTube let me hide videos after I've watched them.

Not only that, let me hide whole dumbass channels. Then apply a similar function at Google search so I can spare my eyes from seeing a 1000 temu ads with each result.

Just let my choose which sites I want to block from showing me search results and ads.
