Mildly Infuriating

ah yes, a $1500 phone with software that won't allow you to do shit under the flag of security and UI.

All people said not to mention that recipe is unnecessarily complex.

Refrigerating the dough for an entire week will make it rather less potent, not more, while most of aroma components accumulation will happen through the first day. Not to mention here you allow it to stay at room temperature for 8 hours first before that, which is an overkill.

Just keep it at room temperature for 2 hours, let it stay in your fridge for 24 hours and you're good to go. Or just use the sourdough directly, that'll do.

Also, I hope you had at least 3 days (better a week for wild starters) of renewing the sourdough before you put it anywhere. Otherwise, it can have a very unstable and potentially even dangerous microbial composition.

Use justtherecipe.com - it will not only cut ads, but also the sob story about the writer's grandmother and how they kept this thing a family secret for exactly 137 years until now.

we've long transcended beyond User Experience and into Advertiser Experience

I low-key find it more infuriating that you're not using an adblocker...

I legitimately thought this was satire

Are things really this bad without an ad blocker these days?

Not using adblock is like not having a spam email folder.

Recipes are a laptop endeavour.

Edit: this is what it looks like with adblocker on. iPad mini 5 with LockDown app, and raspberry pi running pihole.

If ads annoy you as much as they annoy me, get an adblocker. But if there are sites that you use regularly, and block ads on, you might consider contributing to their patreon or whatever.

I recently switched from iPhone to Android, and let me tell you it is ridiculous how much more control you have over your user experience. Adblock alone made it worthwhile.

Anyway, on iPhone i used to use reader mode to filter all that crap. Though some asshole sites block the function

Try pasting the link in 12 foot ladder next time. Works beautifully. https://12ft.io/

I use an app called Recipe Keeper. It's amazing because I just share the page to the app, it extracts the recipe without any nonsense, and now I have a copy for later if I want to reuse it. I literally never bother scrolling recipe pages because of how terrible they all are, and I decide in the app if the recipe is one I want to keep.

It also bypasses paywalls and registration requirements for many sites because the recipe data is still on the page for crawlers even if it's not rendered for a normal visitor.

Pihole has entered the chat.

That's nothing, look at this site I went to when I needed new jeans

I want a browser extension where I can press the "never again" button and all links to that domain will be marked. Then I know never to click to that search result or shared link.

I've sort of done this manually for things like Twitter with some userStyles, but it is annoying to update and haven't configured it on mobile. Kagi site-blocking is also great but only works from search results.

I loaded up a download page on a work computer recently, forgetting it didn't have adblock. My god the amount of ads was insane. There were literally about 20 ads surrounding the content with varying styles and I could actually not figure out at a glance what was the main content. I don't understand how anyone uses the internet raw anymore.

In the address bar of the Firefox app there’s a little icon that looks like a page with some lines on it. Tap that on any page to go to reader mode. Gets rid of most of this junk with a single tap.

Ad"Choices"...ugh, get stuffed.

This is actually one of the biggest reasons why I prefer Android over iOS. In the case where I am forced to use iOS, I use Brave because it comes with an adblocker. Not perfect, but it's the best of a crappy situation.

Does Firefox on iPhone not allow/have extensions?

Also cooked.wiki.. just put it in front of the url and boom. Can save your recipes on there too👌

Reader mode in browsers is great for this situation. Firefox has one for both desktop and mobile. I think brave does too

Sometimes recipe sites will have a "Print Recipe" button that gets rid of all that junk.

CopyMeThat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/copy-me-that-recipe-manager/id956800243 is great. Give it the url, it extracts the recipe. It not only gets rid of the ads, but also the obligatory family history of how the recipe was brought by Nana from the old country, followed by a tedious retelling of a touching story about her. And optionally saves it to your account so you always have it. And there’s web access so you can use anywhere it and a safari extension on the Mac.
