Uhm, no. It doesn't have even the most necessary basics, like ad blocking.
Seriously, how can one humanly browse when 2/3 of the screen is full of
flashing crap, not to mention all security and privacy issues?


I say "security" despite a first-party site having same or more
capabilities to exploit an unpatched issue than a third-party element, but
in practice, the chances https://slashdot.org or https://devuan.org would
run an attack are a wee bit less than a random sleazy ad peddler.
