I don’t think you understand what a dark pattern is.

I love being able to build my own site that works like a motherfucking website. This example is even simpler, but in general, unless I am actively adding products to a cart, your website shouldn’t do jack but display media. Tired of all this modern web shit that attacks you every time you open a page.
Looking at you,
every news site in existence -

every news site in existenceWhat’s so refreshing about motherfucking website is that I feel no need to activate ”reader mode” just to make the site bearable. Basic HTML is perfect as it is.

Holy crap, motherfucking website is beast! I love how simple and straight forward it is. Reminds me of the 90s before ad placement took over the entire internet.

Blame the EU. There, cookies used to bother a tiny number of "privacy advocates" who were already perfectly capable of blocking the cookies in their own browsers but they weren't happy because no one else cared about cookies so they got the GDPR passed to bother everyone in the world.

I do find it funny when such a person makes complaints that the "keep me logged in" option never works for them, tho.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Yes. It's when the UI leads YOU to do the thing you don't want. So unless the banner telling you that the site uses cookies is doing something to make you accept them when you don't want to accept them (such as by not having a button to not accept them visible) having cookies itself isn't a dark pattern.

In America cookies are called cookies but all other biscuits are also called cookies.
In Australia lollipops are called lollies but all other kinds of sweets are also called lollies.
I don’t really know where I’m going with this. -

I don’t really know where I’m going with this.I don't either, but in America biscuits are savory or near flavorless, not sweet like cookies.

Not the EU's fault that all those websites want to invade your privacy.
The EU only demanded consent. That all those websites care more about marketing than about their users says more about those websites than it does the law.

This is... exactly what most sites do with their consent banners.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I do be wondering what a British person would call a Southern style US biscuit... Which is sweet (they're usually glazed with honey), but still not like a cookie.

Most sites I've visited since they had to disclose their use of cookies have clearly visible "accept all" and "reject all" buttons, along with a "more information" button that often lets you configure what cookies you want and what you don't.

I think they are closest to a scone. There's a YouTube series I can't recall the name of that has British teens try American foods. One of the ones they did was biscuits and gravy. The Brits were mostly in shock at how good it was.
