This.

I use Adguard, if a site blocks me for it, then it goes on a black list of “never visit” sites.

In a few cases, if I use and like/support a specific site a lot and that site is ad supported with no other ad-free option, then I white list it.

But to read the odd crappy article? No I’m not disabling my ad blocker.

Thanks, I’ll check it out.

In terms of blocking ads, I run Adguard (lifetime sub), which blocks ads system wide - even in apps.

Synced bookmarks could be good though.

On desktop it’s mainly Firefox, on mobile it’s mainly the stock Samsung browser.

But I’ve started using Edge a bit more on mobile lately since I discovered its reading mode, which makes for a very clean readable format to read articles.

Nah, 3-6 days max.

Thanks, that’s great 🙂

To never make any resolutions ever again.

So far it’s going well 👍🏻

How do you filter for English?

I sometimes get a bunch of Dutch and German posts. They seem to come in waves. My high school German from years ago is not up to the task so I’d rather filter them out!

OK, so I’ve known a number of Scottish people and I’ve been there a couple of times and generally had no issue understanding them.

However, when working in London years ago, I had to talk to someone based in Scotland on the phone and her accent was just insane.

Honestly it was exactly like this post, she’d say something, I’d say sorry what and this repeated 3 times then…we both burst out laughing. The most insane Scottish accent ever!

Yeah exactly.

I’ve stayed in apartments a lot when travelling, but I’ve never used AirBNB. Not because of any reason against them, but I’ve just tended to use other online services/sites.
