I understand the cookie choice popups are maybe a legal necessity in some places with GDPR and so on, but the implementation of the entire thing is just awful.

I understand the cookie choice popups are maybe a legal necessity in some places with GDPR and so on, but the implementation of the entire thing is just awful. Each website having their own badly-coded popovers which are either slow, unusable or just outright deceptive, blocking page scrolling and causing unnecessary page reloads. As for advertising taking over the place, it's just getting insane with them being inserted inline in article content and increasing the page load time significantly, appearing at the beginning of videos or, worse, half-way through them, making pages more resource-intensive and less responsive. The web has never been so widely accessible and yet it has never been more inaccessible.
