Have you guys noticed a recent trend where a site will continually reload, presenting a dialog box about "being unable to load, click here to try again"? It winds up at a message about adblockers being bad and how to disable it. Otherwise you can't read the recipe/review/discussion.
Only trick I've found so far is to outright disable javascript on that site using noscript. Any other ideas?
Use reader mode, it only shows text. So no ads and no pop-ups.
Unfortunately no, it appears to have a refresh in progress faster than I can press the reader button, which pulls you out of reader mode.
Here's an example: https://realgreekrecipes.com/baked-eggplant-with-tomatoes/#recipe
It's not a big deal, I just block JavaScript completely, but I wanted to bring awareness to this.
I clicked your link and it loaded fine for me. However, there was a blocked box for a few seconds but it went away and the page looks and functions normally now. Running firefox with ublock.
Strange, so am I. I'll refresh the ublock lists again.
It works on mobile Firefox but since there is no reader available on desktop can't really test something that isn't there.
Just like hkspowers the site works fine for me and I didn't notice any blocked box. I'm on desktop using Firefox + Ublock Origin + CanvasBlocker + Consent-O-Matic and I also have a Pihole.
