This post popped up a blocking window before I was even 3 sentences in, so maybe unsurprising that I clicked away in less than 60 seconds. If the author wants people to read whatever it is they have to say, maybe they should not put distractions in front of their writing?

Wow it is that bad! It's a white full screen on-your-face message that no one asked for, and it literally appears as soon as you start reading the content!

If that wasn't ironic enough to the title of the article, upon hitting the "X" and then "Back" on my phone (because it generated enough rejection on me that I didn't want to keep reading), the popup appeared again (-: so double annoyance for the price of one.

		The worst part is that it pushes an item onto the history stack both when it opens and closes. So I need to press back 3 times to go back. It's a small thing to complain about but it's still atrocious.

OP is only here to promote their own content, never comments, never posts anything other than their own blog.

		It is sort of impressive, they seem to have keyed to what sort of posts make it here quite quickly (two failures, then two successes at getting engagement).

Ublock Origin in default block all Javascript mode results in being able to read the entire article with no distracting popup's at any time during the read.

I intentionally do not use adblockers, but when your ads either dominate the page, or prevent me from navigating, I close the tab.

Also the margins are too large. I really disdain the "modern" UI designs and I'm not afraid to disdain the people who design them.

Better to be just a txt file. If OP wants $$, just put up a Pantheon page.

		I appreciate your humility, it's hard sometimes to post things online when people are very blunt and unfiltered with their criticism of one's work.
