Hacker News user finds LLM-focused web content (/llm.txt) refreshingly simple compared to modern marketing-heavy websites
A Hacker News user expresses frustration with the modern marketing-heavy web and shares their discovery of using /llm.txt files (originally designed for AI/LLM consumption) as a cleaner, more straightforward way to access web content. They draw parallels to the simplicity of older protocols like Gopher and Gemini, and ponder whether the AI revolution might inadvertently improve the web experience for humans by encouraging more concise, markdown-based content delivery.
Key quotes
I got really tired, as a human, of parsing the standard marketing heavy web we have today.
I've always loved the simplicity of gopher and gemini web.
Recently I found myself manually adding `/llm.txt` to most websites I visit because I find the content for LLMs strait to the point and clear.
So could the AI revolution actually fix the web for humans as a side effect?
