Dear Websites Whose Names Shall Be Withheld… ☀
When I clicked on “Print”, I did not give you permission to launch my printer. It’s a forgivable mistake, but when I click on “Print”, I don’t mean “Please help me print this website out”, I mean “Please take me to a version of this article that is on a single page rather than many short pages, and that isn’t covered in ads and widgets.” I know how to print out a goddamn website. If it’s a well-coded website it even has a print stylesheet that does the job of turning off all the annoyances automatically. But I’d really prefer if that stuff were turned off to begin with.
Oh yes.
Major annoyance. Tapping Cmd-P is heck of a lot easier than clicking on your “Print” link that I falsely believed would give me the full article minus all the ad and widget garbage.
