I didn't express myself as "the web designer" nor I implied that I wished to share experiences with you. What I meant is that I can share experiences to my friends via the browser, which act as a kind of a simple prototyping platform.

I want the power to create experiences for some people I know, in a niche setting, without intentionally inviting anyone else.

Yeah, the problem is everyone and their mother are "creating experiences" instead of giving me the info I'm actually looking for...

The problem you're describing exists in your own expectations.

Honestly, I don't understand what you're referring to: are you intentionally visiting websites "you hate" ? I mean, there are a lot of good websites out of here that aren't proposing an experience and that allows you to read text properly, no ?

When I search for something I visit whatever I can find, no? Until I find what I'm looking for.

I may be biased but whenever I search something I go to whatever website that has an authority on X. When I don't know I who has authority on X I search for "recommendations about X", or I go to the website in charge of X. The only problem I encounter generally and recurrently is not js being an obstacle to find information but rather badly written anti-content.

Replace X with Y since X is a thing.

> I go to whatever website that has an authority on X

But what do you do when the website gives you an 'experience' instead of info about X?

And no, <the company formerly known as Twitter> has no right to take X for themselves. Keep using it for unknown/unspecified items.

Oh, well, that sounds fine! Sorry to mistake your meaning. I wish you could have gotten what you wanted in a way which did not have to change the fundamental nature of the web.

Well, most of the websites that proposes an experience are often rather lacking information-wise, no ? Don't you know of any website that reads like simple text ?
