I totally agree that the UI is absolute dogshit, but I don't think I'm willing to definitively call this out as a dark pattern when it definitely could be shitty design.
That's my problem with this website - it would have more impact if it was more honest/genuine and only called out websites which are definitely 100% dark patterns. Or perhaps they could show questionable websites further down under a slightly different heading - to show that they do recognize it's not black and white.
