 @b92dcc07 This also shifts the ad-viewing traffic to X/Twitter's advertising, instead of the advertising on the publisher's site.

 @bb00ed14 Except that we probably weeded the books about building greenhouses 10 years ago, because no one checked them because they just found the information online.

We're in a grim state of things now.
