I just want to view the recipe (lemmy.world)

For context, I’m on an iPhone using Firefox. I can’t use uBlock Origin, but am ready to block on the DNS level after this.

I use an app called Recipe Keeper. It's amazing because I just share the page to the app, it extracts the recipe without any nonsense, and now I have a copy for later if I want to reuse it. I literally never bother scrolling recipe pages because of how terrible they all are, and I decide in the app if the recipe is one I want to keep.

It also bypasses paywalls and registration requirements for many sites because the recipe data is still on the page for crawlers even if it's not rendered for a normal visitor.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Yeah, that’s fine, but at some point we need to start talking about alternative methods of monetization for websites. On the one hand, compiling a list of recipies on a website and maintaining that website is not easy or cheap and the owners should be able to make money out of it. On the other hand, the user should be able to pay for this comfortably and have a nice experience on the website.

This ad model doesn’t serve any of the two, business or consumer.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

There are subscription recipe sites.

I want a browser extension where I can press the "never again" button and all links to that domain will be marked. Then I know never to click to that search result or shared link.

I've sort of done this manually for things like Twitter with some userStyles, but it is annoying to update and haven't configured it on mobile. Kagi site-blocking is also great but only works from search results.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Unlock origin has the block functionality where you can mark sites with a warning before entering, Unfortunately that "one button" part doesn't exist yet to my knowledge (leechblock might do it but I don't know)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah. It kinda works but I've already been bothered by clicking in the link. I just want to highlight the link so that I can avoid it completely.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

In Kagi, you can prioritize results from domains you trust and deprioritize or hide results from domains you don’t like.

In the address bar of the Firefox app there’s a little icon that looks like a page with some lines on it. Tap that on any page to go to reader mode. Gets rid of most of this junk with a single tap.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

That's nothing, look at this site I went to when I needed new jeans

CopyMeThat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/copy-me-that-recipe-manager/id956800243 is great. Give it the url, it extracts the recipe. It not only gets rid of the ads, but also the obligatory family history of how the recipe was brought by Nana from the old country, followed by a tedious retelling of a touching story about her. And optionally saves it to your account so you always have it. And there’s web access so you can use anywhere it and a safari extension on the Mac.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Nextcloud Recipes will do this as well. Both situations require that its in the page's metadata as a schema.org/Recipe standard json.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Just use adguard dns. Problem solved!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Try pasting the link in 12 foot ladder next time. Works beautifully. https://12ft.io/

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Firefox has a reader mode built in. Works in mobile too. I assume it's very similar to this, it just cuts out an extra step.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Firefox also has ublock origin support on Android.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (3 children)

This is actually one of the biggest reasons why I prefer Android over iOS. In the case where I am forced to use iOS, I use Brave because it comes with an adblocker. Not perfect, but it's the best of a crappy situation.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Or just use AdGuard.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Or just install an adblocker and use Safari.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I can do that, but the adblocker (either Brave's adblocker or AdBlock Plus) is much worse than uBlock origin because it only blocks ads, not other crap like autoplaying videos, trackers, and malware.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Safari blocks trackers by default.

Is Fennec not available for iOS, or the extension support is the problem? This is what I see, with ublock in Fennec and pihole on my router: https://ibb.co/wSYnsM0

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Currently all iOS browsers are safari with custom interfaces over-the-top.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Reader mode in browsers is great for this situation. Firefox has one for both desktop and mobile. I think brave does too
