Probably the only thing that got less ads over time, incredible
Milan vs Milan with uBlock
1985 looks pretty cool in some ways.
It’s like Milan was intentionally attempting to create a sight like Times Square.
But then they realised emulating that wasn’t a good fit, and leaning into the history they did have was much better.

They took the ads off buildings and put them on all your digital devices instead.
They definitely try to.

Unshittification?
Oof. It’s like a nice stately gentleman, with a huge Bass Pro Shops logo tattooed to his forehead. Much better now.
I wonder what Times Square would look like without the ads.
Looks better
Original for comparison:
Why would you wonder that? Manhattan is huge, and 95% of it isn’t Times Square.
It’d be weird and I think the ads are part of the attraction for tourists these days since they’re so recognizable on a photo
Some would like it less, but it’s still the hub of the theater district
I like 1985 better. 2025 seems so dull and sad
Europe turned into a museum
The architect must have been rolling in their grave.
Funny. The exact opposite is happening at Rådhuspladsen.
Obviously ad block makes a difference but if you turn it off of use someone else’s computer it’s so bad now
Yeah I always get so used to not having to worry about what I click on that I get very overwhelmed without that luxury

I’m shocked it isn’t the other way around chronologically. Good on Milan
