Even BoingBoing is going all in on the anti-adblock popups, sad.

I loved BoingBoing 20(ish) years ago. Several years ago I stopped visiting because SO MANY of their posts were just ads. I went to the site today because a friend linked to a story and just... Wow. The site is cancer now.

For people complaining about ads and popups, try LibreWolf/Mull with uBlock Origin in medium mode.

This setup can sometimes break sites, needing some slight intervention (once per site), but I never get these popups people complain about.

Sites that absolutely refuse to work are rare, but it does happen. In that case, just have a backup Firefox or Chromium browser.

What are you using? I saw nothing ( Firefox Android + uBlock on a network with a pi-hole)

Even on mobile I get no ads.
