Is everyone just using AI and not proof reading? I see this a lot lately. Even Tom’s Guide has bad editing, a good example is this article: https://www.tomsguide.com/news/pixel-8

Most notably, the display looks set to shrink from 6.3 inches to 5.8 inches

Then

The Pixel 8’s screen is rumored to measure 6.17 inches, down from 6.31 inches.

It’s like they’re just grabbing from other articles and cramming together or adding content to old news now vs analyzing and forming opinions. With all the LMG drama lately, I had hoped written news would take note. Maybe I’m just too picky.

    Everyone hopped onto ad blockers

    Rightfully so.

    A banner ad here or there, and people could put up with that. But limitless greed kicked in and these companies would bury ads in the article, ones that pop up over the article and everywhere in between. And on mobile it is 10x worse where the formating is an absolute mess and ads take priority over any actual real content.
