Nothing on this page is clickable for me, it seems like the "cookie banner" is invisible and taking up the entire page.

Are you using some type of adblocker that blocks cookie banners?

I have coded my own cookie banner and didn’t use any of the existing tools out there. That’s why I’m surprised if something is blocking it, but there was already another comment about the same as well.

This is to be honest, weird thing for adblocker to do—to block legitimate cookie banner.

And yes, website is not going to work until the required cookie is accepted (my backend rejects requests when they don’t specify that the necessary cookie consent was given).

Well, I use pi-hole and uBlock Origin. But uBlock doesn't block anything so it must be the pi-hole for some reason?

Do you use some third party script or something?

No third-party scripts are used except for Live-Chat. And even that one is only loaded when you click on the Live-Chat button.

Maybe pi-hole doesn’t like "cookie-banner" class/id of the cookie banner component?

EDIT: there are some default landen.co scripts (for landing page only), but they are fairly standard and shouldn’t be invasive for some extensions to block them…
