Click a link and need to go back 10x to get back. Yes, I enjoy the footballs.
just click again, but fast enough to get the redirect, but not too fast to miss it and double click, and try not to do it a third time or you're going back a few ages.
I was just thinking about this.
Super annoying because it can actually be fixed by using History.replaceState() over History.pushState().
I guess the reason they do it is either to keep you stuck on their sucky site, or just incompetence.
Added to my blocked websites
I've always wondered. Is there really a benefit to a ton of redirects like that? Like, do they gain anything by making it harder to back out?
Or is it just extremely incompetent website programming?
more ads displayed with each redirect i guess?
Google translate does this, too. This not only pollutes the back button, it also pollutes the entire browser history.
Deepl is vastly superior to Translate btw
Edit - look at these knobends 👇
This is what's wrong with the internet now, some wank coming up with a massively niche reason why every comment is wrong.
Use a mix of both you insufferable fucking plonkers
This is why I have dozens, if not hundreds of tabs open. Usually I open links in a new tab so I can easily tab back to where I came from. Using a hierarchical tab manager makes this work better because when you're done with the topic, you close the whole branch... theoretically.
This tactic also seems targeted at mobile users where it's harder to break the loop.
Microsoft does this with the Xbox forums and it bothers me so much
MS does this with ALL their forums, and it’s cunty.
They do this with all their sites ime.
"mildly" infuriating
This is one of the absolute greatest reasons to support opening most everything in a new tab (as long as you don't end up like my mom who at one point had over 100 tabs on her phone). Doesn't matter if it's a link from the same website, from a search engine, or whatever else there is. New tab.
Then on android Firefox you accidentally hit the back button and it closes the tab and you can't go forward and you already navigatedc away from the originating page on the other tab forcing you to open your history and try to figure out where the hell it is.
Also: Algorithmic generated feeds where you try to click on one thing, but you click on the next thing in the list and when you click back, the feed looks completely different because it has new information on you. That thing you wanted to click on is gone and will never return.
That belongs on /c/extremelyenraging.
Hate that on YouTube…
What's worse is that YouTube sometimes doesn't do that, i.e. when you hit back it shows the same list from the cache or something. It gives you hope and makes it worse on those occasions when it does fully refresh on back.
That's actually how I do my Lemmy feed. I have one chance to comment on a thread and if I don't do it, when the page refreshes I lose it forever.
I've learned to accept that there are just some things the universe never wanted me to comment on.
I'd love that, my entire frontpage is the same 30 things over and over unless I deliberately sort for something then it's a DIFFERENT 30 things over and over
Now is your chance to finally let it all out...
You've reminded me of a similar frustration that I've never found the answer to - though it may be adblock related - in that whenever I open a link to eBay it completely wipes the history for that tab. Or possibly it opens a new tab and kills the parent. Either way I always forget about it until the next time and then it drives me mad all over again.
Reddit has been doing this when I click a result from a Google search (yeah, sometimes you have to)
It’s fucking annoying and I hope whatever JavaScript trick lets them do this gets blocked
I use a Firefox based browser and this hasn't happened to me, are you using Chromium or Safari? Could be a browser specific issue
