- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18488123, 7 days agoI've been using this extension for close to 3 months now, I've been meaning to write a review but had forgotten my moz login so kept forgetting to leave one.
I initially only installed this extension while I was working on a research project and some of the obscure independent websites I was navigating to kept accosting me with screaming newsletter notifications that I was sick of (despite never having used their website once in my life outside this occasion lol). I'm so happy with how well it's been working thus far and how far it's exceeded my expectations! Thanks to this extension, I never- and I mean never- have to deal with the awful "wE cArE aBoUt YoUr PriVaCy" boxes that ironically demand you allow the "legitimate interest" of 467 of their ad partners to track you. And while I've never trusted the I Don't Care About Cookies extension because all it really does is push the accept button for you, afaik PopUpOff does not do this! It literally just gets rid of the annoying box/content wall that I'd ordinarily spend 2-3 minutes manually doing myself with the uBlock element picker (and everytime I needed to refresh the page...) So thank you very much for ridding me of this constant headache!
In terms of 'breaking websites' and usability, the only website that I've found myself constantly running into trouble and being reminded I have the extension installed is Reddit. It's their awful damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't UI and I've stuggled at times to get it to display regular content while removing all the interstitial junk. However, after extensive tinkering I've found it functions best on Moderate. If I'm wanting to click on and view photos however I usually have to turn it off. Beyond that I keep it on Aggressive for almost every website, sometimes I'll need to switch to Delicate if I notice a search bar that should be at the header is missing (like streaming sites etc).
All and all, I would say along with Dark Reader and uBlock Origin, this is one of the most valuable extensions I currently have. Absolutely fantastic job, and I love your website as well. Very clean design and I hope more people take a second to check it out! Thanks again for making this available for free to us, I'll try to make a donation if I can in the future!Developer response
posted 6 days agothanks a lot, I appreciate you taking the time to write such a detailed review :)
donations are helpful but don't worry too much about it, it's not the reason I work for. Enjoy! - Rated 5 out of 5by Jedi Knight, 9 days agoAfter trying about half a dozen extensions this one actually works!!! Thank you so much. Definitely will have to send a donation for sure.
