Ask HN: Will anything replace the Web for simple hyperlinked text documents?

I really hate how everything on the Web has to be app-ified, for lack of a better word. I used to be able to just read content, see images, click links, and maybe type something into a form of some sort. Since then, it feels like the quality of my online interactions have dropped, as I find less content and more advertising, tracking and “apps”. Since so many important things use websites (like my bank), I know that it won’t be going away anytime soon. However, I feel like I’m not the only one who is frustrated by how hard it is to get at the content. Do you know of any complete replacements for the Web that focus on the basic hyperlinked text experience?
