Nowadays it's like every single blog and website will "popup" something everytime i select text. It annoys me to no end, because I select text as I read along and it's incredibly annoying.

Whether be it ChatGPT, medium articles, and recently even Google search!

UBlock Origin allows you to block JavaScript by default on all websites, and it's what I do. And Firefox has something called reader mode. Absolutely fantastic tools.

If you don't want to outright block all JavaScript you can just block 3rd party scripts, it usually lets you see if the website uses some fuckery or not.
