Just generally it waffled on, and didnt get to a point.
Thats the “its not X, its Y” pattern.
Plus all the other constant flip/flop contrasting throughout the text. It’s like a comparative decision matrix converted to prose, and exhausting to read.
Not to mention the ai writing assistant pop up or whatever’s this is upon viewing the page:
Fortunately I disallow javascript execution by default, so I often don’t see this crap. Of course, about half the time I don’t see images or the article content either, since delivering text or images is apparently completely impossible without running arbitrary code.
I seem to vaguely recall we used to have some sort of hyper-text markup language that could do all that, but I guess I must’ve imagined it.
