When I am on a phone, let me zoom on whatever the fuck I want. Unconditionally. Period. I won’t purchase shit off of your shitty site if I can’t see it. And you obviously have no clue how shitty my vision has gotten over the years. And for the love of anything good in the world, don’t wait till I’m zoomed in to pop a fucking model asking me if I want to join your list for 10% off. If I buy something, you’re gonna put me on your list, whether I like it or not. And I can’t stop you if I actually want a receipt. So just give me the discount. Or don’t. I don’t even fucking care anymore. Just fuck off. Fuck.
I wouldn't be so mad about that, unless it was a modal.
Touché
Firefox for Android. Settings -> Accessibility -> Enable zoom on all websites
Extensions -> uBlock Origin -> check "Annoyances". Handles almost all of the random bullshit modals
I really need to switch to android. I don’t love google but the popups are killing my soul
Every time I get a newsletter pop-up I enter something like "fuckyou@dontfuckingannoyme.withyourfucking.popup.fuckingstep.on.a.lego.fuck" in the hopes that whoever manages the list sees it when cleaning out the bounces
The worst is when the zoom affects the surrounding UI elements, but the part you want gets unzoomed by the same amount.
