On the flip side, most websites are so ad-ridden these days a reader mode or other summary tool is almost required for normal browsing. Not saying that AI is the right move, but I can understand not wanting to visit the actual page any more.
Maybe I missed something, but ublock still works very fine for me, even on mobile. And running a pihole, while not trivial, also takes care of some ad traffic. Firefox coems with a reader mode (a feature I really like even with the adblockers!).
So why do people not want to visit pages anymore, if all these tools already existed?

i put ublock origin, or another adblock on all my browsers, including phone ones and forks.

Most people aren’t technical enough to install an ad blocker, believe it or not.
