The state of this webpage and most i visit on a daily basis makes me sad. Can’t just open a page and read stuff anymore. There’s a vide being loaded and before that finishes the cookie popup comes up.
Disabling Javascript by default avoids most of this, though it breaks some sites.
uBlock has some cookie popup removers
Then the website ends up not scrolling or thinks that it has a modal that needs closing; ended up opting out of that after a couple months of annoyance.
I go one step further and disable CSS by default too. More often than not, disabling CSS improves webpages.
I'll have to try that out, somehow I'd not considered that.
