I hate using mobile to read articles - eviltoast

Video playing, ad that scrolls, two lines of a story, the bottom popping up with notifications every few minutes over the top of more scrolling ads.

Yay internet.

Edit: Oh wow! Did not expect so many responses. First let me say, thank you for taking the time to read and respond! To address the biggest response to use Firefox I actually have it on my phone it’s just remembering to break the habit. This was more to show what an average user who just uses what they’re used to experiences on mobile browsing.

    Most apps, including Lemmy apps, open links in an internal browser which does not have those features.

      You can usually change that in the settings. If not (at least on Android and on the app I’m currently using) if you open a link in your lemmy app, then click the “…” menu (in Connect and my previous reddit app, it was on the top right) there is an option to “open in Firefox,” or “open in external app.” This will open the link in your browser instead of having to view it in your lemmy app.
