One thing I do to try to slow down the rate of change on the web is to upgrade my browser less often than most people.
Specifically, I use Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR).
Mozilla resisted providing this "update channel" (Firefox ESR) for years, but eventually yielded to the desires of large IT departments. Despite Mozilla's writing that "Firefox ESR is meant for organizations", with only one or 2 minor problems (with plugins IIRC), which I easily solved by upgrading temporarily to Firefox's normal ("release") "update channel", I've used it personally for years.
Below is a link to the best page I've been able to find to download Firefox ESR, but note that both version 31esr and version 38esr are available from the page below. Version 31esr is still supported with security patches and is what I have been using. It is my understanding that before it stops getting security patches, version 31esr will automatically upgrade itself to version 38esr.
