The amount of casual PC users telling me my website is broken *because* I don't paywall my writing nor track my users or shove a mailing list thing at them is worrying me.

The amount of casual PC users telling me my website is broken *because* I don't paywall my writing nor track my users or shove a mailing list thing at them is worrying me. I know it's unconventional to have a website *not* throw popups at you every visit, but come on, this is deeply unsetteling. I can't express how many people are scared of my website *because* I don't track my users, I don't bombard them with things upon visiting. The only thing that's broken at the moment is the navigation menu button doesn’t work with JavaScript disabled, but there's a site map non JavaScript people can use. https://sightlessscribbles.com/ #WebDev

Same, I also have zero cookies, zero tracking on my website. So no cookie banner.
What do you want me to do, open a cookie banner for you just to tell you I don't use cookies? Mhkay.

@WeirdWriter For real, they think it’s broken because there is no cookie banner or something? Their understanding of the web has been broken by seeing all these dark patterns and surveillance everywhere

Yes. Some are instantly suspicious of it *because* it doesn't do those things, like they are afraid I have malware on my site so are afraid to click links on it. @GreenSkyOverMe
