Modern Web Woes - I'm mad at the internet

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Too young to remember when devs went out of their way to break shit if you weren't using internet explorer?
Nah, I've been using the 'nets since the late '90s. Sites only running on Internet Exploder must've been far rarer. I never used a site not fully working on other browsers.*

* Except for a site I wrote which I made using Micro$oft Word and then fixed by re-writing it in Notepad. The Word version injected all this extra code to do the same thing.

If you use an extension to change your user agent to some random text, Google will display a minimal cut down version without their dog shit AI features that loads in like 0.2ms

You can also append &udm=14 to any Google search URL, using a redirection extension like Redirector, and avoid the A.I. garbage.

You should be using a different search engine anyway.

Interesting that it uses the 2010 design for the search page but the mobile design for the search results page. Now when can they go back to the whole Kennedy design for all their shit?
