- tempfile 1y agoI followed the link with an ad-blocker enabled and saw nothing.
- happymellon 1y agoInteresting, I just clicked the link (in FF on Android with ad blocking) and it loaded fine, without adverts or popups.
- GeekyBear 1y agoSame here.
- teekert 1y agoFor me it works just fine (with ublock origin enabled). May be an a-b test?
- thwarted 1y agoI pasted the URL into firefox, and didn't see that huge "you're using an adblocker popup". I opened a firefox private window and navigated to it from the HN page, and got the adblocker popup. Right now I have two tabs open in the same non-private window, one showing the adblocker popup and one not. In the one that's not I can view the whole page. Reloading in the one that is not showing the adblocker popup then showed it. I navigated from HN in a non-private window and got the popup. So this seems to be referer constrained in some sense, not necessarily browser based. Hard to confirm.

- ehnto 1y agoI do everything in private by default, so I clicked on the link from a private HN tab and did not get the popup on firefox mobile.
