Browsing the internet without uBlockbOrigin is bad for your health.
Ad blockers don't protect you against dumbass frontend devs who serve 5mb png files to be stuffed into 600x400 boxes.
Thanks kind stranger, I didn't realize this was configurable.
Shit, I might use that on a desktop with broadband.
Is 50kb enough or should I go higher.
Also. Thanks!
Thank you, this helps a lot

Thank you.
I especially hated wallpaper website that load full size pictures on previews grids
No but the good blockers give you the power to disable elements on a case by case basis.
Removing the background image for fandom wiki articles makes them load 3x faster.
