Click a link and need to go back 10x to get back. Yes, I enjoy the footballs.

Yeah, I also hate back-button hijacking. I suspect some websites do it to artificially force more page views for ad revenue. Try a long-press on the back button to view the history for that browser tab and click on the most recent page you think won't redirect.

I hate that this is even a feature in the web standard. A result of some massive corporate corruption for sure.

I recently looked into this after it seemed like Facebook messed with my back button on a private mobile window:

Someone pointed out that it's nice to have, for example, your email provider know that you probably want to go back for a message to your inbox instead of going back to the previous page.

But what if browsers monitored which sites abused the feature and showed a pop-up when you click the back button, just like they offer to show you notifications? They could show you:

This site has been reported to hijack the back button. Would you like to go back to the last domain that you visited?

and offer to remember the setting.

Youtube does it, and it just continues to blast the wrong video you accidentally just auto-started because instead if fucking off, it shows other videos with the bad video getting just reduced.

Aaargh for the state of todays internet

I've had this happen only when I go back too quickly, before the page can completely load in

I use YouTube on desktop daily and I've never had this happen to me.

It does it on mobile

I usually right click the back button and go 2 entries back. Done.

Microsoft also does this a lot on some of their sites.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

I usually just block the site.

Usually with this, it's like 20 entries, so pushes everything else off.

The ones where it's only a couple entries mostly seem to be the ones where there's multiple articles on a single page and it's at least might be attempting to be helpful?
