Surely there’s a better way than creating a floating modal dialogue in front of the content I came there to read.

Are you also upset when they do a donation drive and have a pre-article header literally asking for money?

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 2 points 4 months ago

Yes, but not because the header is a distraction — it’s generally less obtrusive. I’m not convinced that they actually need the money to achieve the goals of the foundation, but that’s another matter of opinion in how I think they spend those funds. I’ve donated in the past.
