How do you handle "disable your adblock" type sites? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn't bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid "disable your adblock" video, that infuriated me so much... I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn't find such unique catalogs on these sites.

Many sites work best with NoScript because the anti AdBlock is done by JavaScript.

(Of course that doesn't always work, but when it does, great.)

If you’re using uBO, then you don’t need NoScript. uBO is a media blocker, not an ad blocker, so it is capable of blocking JavaScript per site or globally.
