It doesn't take 3 years. Here you go: *##[popover] That uBlock Origin rule will block any HTML element with a 'popover' attribute. I just tested and can confirm that popovers never display for me now. This is a simple type of ad–block rule that will even work in manifest v3. If blocking popovers is really what you want, you should be celebrating that they're now clearly indicated in the markup. Instead of figuring out the particular incantation to block a popover on some site, you can block them easily per-site or everywhere. If anything, intrusive popover usage will be limited because of how easy they are to block. Ad displayers will end up avoiding them. Of course, I don't think you actually want to do this. There's many uses of popovers that aren't intrusive. But I'm really struggling to see how this makes anything worse.
