They will have hard time "selling" less intrusive ads back to people. Everybody I know has already tasted the freedom of not having ads thanks to the ad blockers and I am sure that going back to ads would be a step back.What guarantee is there that ads won't start being intrusive again in a while? Intrusive ads are better noticed than other ads and over time they would become dominant again.

Off topic, any idea why newline disappears when I post from Chrome on Android? Everything appears as one long paragraph. Posting from desktop Chromium is fine.

Performing your bad haiku lines

I always hated haikus, since the 5th grade. Thanks for the illustrations why -- these are no worse than "real" ones. A load of tripe.

Prose rocks. Falsely imbued meaning via brevity and manufactured mystery is for the weak minded. Haikus are a lower form of poetry than limericks.
