Title: grapevine
Post by: droqen on July 22, 2022, 09:07:13 AM
I want a browser extension that blocks all forms of algorithmic discovery so that when I discover things it is because I heard about it "on the grapevine" rather than enabling the sort of interconnected eternal click-click-click that the hyperlink-enabled web has created and which infinitely-scrolling websites such as Twitter and Facebook (i.e. most or all social media) have leaned harder into.

I'm currently using Requestly (https://requestly.io/) to inject this nightmarishly inefficient script into all twitter pages:

setInterval(function(){
  switch (window.location.href) {
    case "https://twitter.com/explore":
    case "https://twitter.com/home": window.location.href = "https://newforum.droqen.com/index.php?topic=294.0";
  }
}, 1)
