I happened to click a link that took me to the associated ~~twitter~~ X account for something I was interested in and was greeted by not one, not two, but four modern day web popups.
I know it's nothing new. I've got a couple of firefox plugins that are usually quite good at hiding this sort of nonsense, but I guess they failed me today (or, I shudder to think, there were even more that were blocked, and this is what got through)
What's the worst new/not-signed-in user experience you've encountered recently?
The different popups just show how bad design the web is today.
Ask cookie question is required.
Login? Always create an account and proceed with all signup questions.
Agreement? Read them 1 hour until you have understood everything.
Webbrowser: can I get your location? And please the mic and video too!
Finally, don't forget the ads!
Thank the European bureaucrats that don't understand technology.
Sure, but can we at least agree that 800 "partners" is a tad too much?
Of course, the problem is they shouldn't have gone for a warning, they should have gone against the practice of having 800 partners, or do we think the average user clicks "refuse"?
What they did is almost like nothing with extra steps.
