my partner's mouse's scroll wheel has been broken for years. every time i've tried to get them a new mouse they stop using it after about 2 days and go back to the busted one. why? "idk it was too heavy/didn't fit their small hands/plastic felt weird" etc. deadass i've gone through about 6 or 7. idk what the point of this rambling post is other than people are adaptable to shitty conditions and most straight up don't care that their hardware/software is shitty.

uBlock on Medium mode. That is all you need.

Honestly, just don't go to that part of the Internet unless you absolutely have to. YouTube is a great resource for information, but it sucks as entertainment.

That sounds like a you problem, honestly. Tons of great channels out there for basically any interest. Do you just, like, only ever look at the front page without logging in? Like just at the absolute lowest common denominator clickbait stuff?
