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?

Tax all captured data @40 dollars per field per year. First name, 40 bucks, last name 40 bucks, etc.

instagram's login pop-ups will appear if you have seen like 12 posts of a user. that's really annoying. if you are on mobile and open instagram on the browser and then log in, instagram still asks you to log in. how weird!

I don't have Instagram and when friends send links from it I don't even try anymore.

Reminds me of screenshots of internet explorer with 20 search bar addons from the 2000s 🤣
