I'll give an annoying popup/paywalled page one chance by trying reader mode, which often works. I'm extremely rarely motivated enough to bother trying any harder than that to read an article the publisher is actively working against me being able to read.

I didn't even consider reader mode to be honest. I've been using the disable-javascript thing for so long it's become the automatic go-to when I get such popups.
