Panic closed the tab when a giant form popup appeared asking for my email. Hate to add noise to the discussion, but I hope the author sees this and understands the market doesn't want this and reduces readership.
These kind of CTAs are everywhere these days and it's rather frustrating. Wish there was some solution to filter out sites that use completely not-ignorable (like in the corner) CTAs.
Same. I wish HN had a filter I could set up to hide entries form domains that do this. Won't catch one offs like this but I can add it along with NYT and other paywalls so I don't waste my time.
