Cookie Preferences

I get fed up when I go to a new website and spend ages turning off all the cookies and then finding that the site I'm looking at doesn't have what I want. 

I wish all site would have a reject all option right at the start, how do others cope with the nonsense?

  • I noticed some sites won't show you any content, or give you a default page, if you select no cookies.

    Sometimes if I'm not that interested and it is not easy to select essential only then I just find another site.

    I find the whole cookie thing annoying.

    It the shear amount of time it takes to go through them all and turn them off, before I'm allowed onsite to find that that there's noting on there I want, or it's the wrong sort of site, and then I have to do all over again multiple times, before finding maybe one relevant thing. 10 minutes searching and turning off cookies for 1 minute of stuff I actually want dosen't seem like a rewarding use of my time, especially if I just want a quick look for something I'm curious about.

    I agree, with news they have a habit of putting an appealing headline which turns out to be a non event so try to avoid even looking. 

    As for shopping, if something is in a shop can be much easier. I wasted yesterday afternoon trying to get some things online I couldn't get locally and ended up abandoning it for another day as it got stuck. 

    As for the edible sort, they take very little time at all, my choice, fruit and spice.

    We have so few shops now, our high streets look post apocalyptic, voarded up and abandoned building with rubbish blowing past.

    Sorry you have similar problems Homebird, but it makes me feel a little better knowing I'm not alone.
