Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

That website had a huge list to scroll down to opt out of cookies. At the very bottom was a highlighted button to toggle everything on and undo all your hard work.
But I'm sure everything else they do is trustworthy.
All for a 2 paragraph article, i spent longer unchecking the fucking boxes
I couldn't even have uBlock remove that
Out of all things, somehow privacy badger removes it
This site convinced me to, yet again, block third-party scripts by default on mobile. That works, btw.
Except then it blocks the cookie that remembers your cookie preferences, and your entire time online is spent closing pop ups. Welcome to the future of convenience!
Oh, third-party frames too. This is my default everywhere, so i didn't thought of it. Was it this?
Thank you for the recommendation, I’ll see if that does it
I have my client (voyager) set to default to reader mode, so I didn’t even see any cookie options. Does this mean I accepted them all or none or what?!
Reader mode kinda just leaves the cookie popup in limbo. The website is still waiting for you to answer. ~~Same as not accepting I guess.~~ You can text this by toggling reading mode on/off and the pop-up will appear
*edit: I dunno if it just replaced the cookies now that I think about it....
No problems with AdAway.
have you tried consent-o-matic? Admittedly, it didn't work on that site, but it works like a charm on > 90 % of sites I visit.
