What’s the point of sending bulk emails at 3am? Do companies really think I want to wake up and have my inbox filled with automated shit like “your license is soon to expire”, why would I give a fuck at 8am?
I hate when I get "Your rewards points are going to expire on (date)." email reminders with increasing frequency over the three month span that the reminders become more annoying than useful.
I also hate business offers that expire on a fixed date that falls on a weekend when most people are either out of the office or not thinking about business stuff. Making the deadline be the next business day following the weekend (or even before it) would make more sense, but sense and business operations seem mutually exclusive these days .
Is Captcha simply refusing to work on Librewolf for anyone else? It seems like a bunch of sites are triggering captcha specifically for Librewolf and it's those 9th circle of hell type of captchas where the images you've selected very slowly fade out and then a new batch fade in and then no matter what you actually select it tells you that you've failed the captcha and to try again.
Is it just me, or is the number of broken things on sites increasing a lot lately?
Of course if you email whoever runs the site -- assuming you can even do that -- they will probably ask what browser you are using, what OS you're on, what your hardware is, what the household voltage is, what the humidity level is... and never fix the issue. In Current Year, I have never seen a site issue fixed after I contacted them about it.*

More and more sites just break if you don't use plain chrome or safari with no ad blocker these days. I wasn't able to buy something from the Best Buy website in Firefox the other day.
For the captchas you're talking about specifically though, click the little headphones; the sound prompt is easier.

Wcofun.net just broke their site by putting a "disable adblocker" overlay on all of the video players and it still remains up whether I disable Adnauseum or not. Is there a way I can reliably get rid of overlays like this, as Adnauseum doesn't detect or block them when they are inside a video player frame.

I've had sites appear broken without any apparent reason only to learn they require Google Chrome or MS Edge. Fortunately, I haven't had sites hate ad blockers as much as YouTube does on and off, but I always wonder if its a matter of time before other sites become just as aggressive about users trying to block the annoying assault of ads.

I use either uBlock or ABP to select and block elements such as overlays. Works with a lot of sites.
Some legacy media actually had more sophisticated paywalls a few years back than they have now, so a lot of what I hadn't been able to access is now accessible in full for free again.

Adnauseum is a fork of Ublock Origin and it acts the same way. The only difference is that Adnauseum has an extra feature that lets it simulate clicks on any ads that it collects and blocks which basically defrauds intrusive ads and trackers by polluting any data that advertisers collect on you with "noise".

These are hilarious to me, because they're always misspelled in the most obvious ways, and they're from places that I don't (Tract0r Supply) or can't (no Kr0gers in my neck of the woods) shop at. It's like, no, Mar1ott, I won't answer a survey about my recent stay because I haven't been on one.

In my case, the rewards in question are legit. However, I only need to order from this company quarterly, so the constant nagging to redeem my rewards points before they expire gets old fast.
That said, I've received both the bulk mail regarding rewards for other businesses that are not legitimate and ID theft vectors (with aforementioned m1sspellin9s) and legitimate offers for rewards involving companies, restaurants, etc. that I would never have any interest in patronizing for whatever reason. Both are equally annoying for different reasons.
Every so often Cloudflare or Captcha or some other humiliation ritual service has an error that bricks tons of websites. Sometimes the errors are restricted to a certain browser or will heavily conflict with some type of script or ad blocking extension. Or they will have the service fail for desktops or mobile browsers and require hours or sometimes days of time to fix. There was a period once where the Cloudflare loop wasn't fixed on Firefox for two straight weeks and there was no official response from Cloudflare nor Mozilla.

This is a major issue with manifest 3 web where they can throw all sorts of shadow layer or other attacks at browsers and prevent element blocking or picking. It's already getting more and more difficult for average users to use the element blocker around certain things. And many of those "disable your ad blocker" use randomly generated strings so if you disable one it just regenerates another random number to display the giant "PLEASE DISABLE" banner. In order to disable the script that generates that ad block warning you usually need advanced knowledge of how to use ublock.

It won't work on Chrome browsers probably within a year.
Is there some sort of script that you can load into something like Tampermonkey to bypass these stupid overlays? There used to be a lot of them floating around a few years ago but most of them no longer work.
All of this bullshit is bad enough on Arkenfox, so I do not know why people are using Chrome with all of the shady stuff that Google does with it.
I thought I might watch the Spiderman Noir thing on Amazon as it's Nicholas Cage. What's a Amazon Prime membership these days - £8.99? That's less than it costs to go to the cinema and I get 3x the content, eh fuck it - I'll spring for this. But wait - Amazon Prime now includes ads? You can pay extra again to watch ad free?
Fuck that! You can ask me to watch ads for free or you can ask me to pay to watch. But you can't ask me to pay to watch ads!
uBlock Origin still seems to block the ads, thankfully. On mobile you have to open the page in the desktop view on one of the browsers that can install add ons (Firefox and Edge) to get it without ads or some horseshit that tries to open up the Prime Video app/install it.
Marginalia will occasionally show some old sites alongside the other non-commercial sites that it tends to display. I use it for web exploration alongside Wiby all the time. This site allows you to search by year range on Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo. It's not perfect since sometimes sites will be flagged as having content that is much older than it actually is, but it is still somewhat useful. It was really weird being able to see a few sites/articles from the early 2000s where weirdos (presumably from Ivy League colleges) were going on about genderqueer crap.
