Furthermore, its use of AI-generated art for items may prove unpopular with a segment of the TTRPG community that is vocally critical of the technology’s use in creative fields.
Started reading the article, scrolled down a little, then a pop-up started at the bottom of the screen with a "loading" spinner that never loaded anything, so it was stuck and couldn't be closed. While it was there, scrolling froze so the article became unreadable.
Thanks. I suspect that's Google's "we'll help indie news sites" widget that's supposed to nudge you to patron. It's been on the site for about 30 hours and I'll take it off tonight. You've been more helpful than the megacorp.
I just tried it again and it resolved to a Patreon nag-box. As I'm using Firefox, my usual reaction to things like that is to go to Reader View so I just get the article text.

I don't have a lot of shopping in my games, but I don't see why I couldn't handle this with a shared spreadsheet or other document.

Perhaps it's throwing tantrums at my adblocker, but the website that article is on is pretty unuseable as well.

What's the problem? Asking to see if I can fix it. By choice there are absolutely no anti adblocker scripts on the site.

I've just nuked it. I mean, you're basically a new reader and if Google's silly enough to nag you into Patron then it's clearly not very smart.
