Slightly off-topic, but popping a paid subscription modal when I'm barely more than a paragraph into a long-form article isn't exactly a good way to get me to stick around.
- zkms 9y agoUse a JS blocker, I'm blocking that site's JS and i don't have any popups.
- fiblye 9y agoYep, I scrolled down to the first paragraph and got a pop up. Instantly left.
- jessaustin 9y agoWhat I see is not a modal. It is a "hero" image, a sentence, and a button flowed into the normal text of the page. I just kept scrolling down, and it bothered me no more. I'm running uBO, but I doubt that has any effect?
- stordoff 9y agoAlso running uBO, and this is what I was talking about: http://i.imgur.com/IuiAcpA.png http://i.imgur.com/IuiAcpA.png The thing that appeared in the normal flow also appeared for me lower down the article.
