jesus lemmings are idiots
you've heard of ai crawlers? yes, no?
I mean yeah this doesn’t address the annoyances we must all live with but no; most Lemmings are not web admins and have no fucking idea what has happened to the internet in the last 5 years. It’s very behind the scenes to them, as this thread shows - most people think “CloudFlare bad because they make me prove I’m human” and not “CloudFlare bad because they read all proxied traffic unencrypted and pass that info to whoever wants it”
You're a dumbass if you think that justifies making the internet unusable.
Look, man, the internet isn't for users anymore, it is for bits to get blocked.
