    This is insane. Works so well to remove CNNs stupid subscription pages.

    The addon works just fine, but when you go to uninstall it, it spams you with requests for feedback. I absolutely loathe software that acts in such a sleazy, spammy way. I'd not use it again for this reason.

    sorry to hear that it "spammed" you, it should only ask once and thanks for bringing this up, I will definitely check it

    Even when turned OFF, it still nukes site functionality. When turned OFF it prevents essential site pop ups like the repost options on twitter for eg. NB: it is not the only site it cripples when turned OFF, only the most recent example that prompted me to write this and delete the extension.
    There is no point having an extension I have to constantly monitor to enable and disable the entire time I am browsing just to prevent a mild annoyance. That is more of an aggravation and hindrance to what I'm doing than the actual problem it is was made to "fix."
    Maybe an update that isn't over a year old might help.

    I'm sorry you didn't have a nice experience with PopUpOFF. It is indeed not for everybody as it states in the description:

    "Drawbacks?

    - It still is in development, so there could be bugs or imperfect solutions, I’m working on it solo and there are other things in the world to do. So be gentle, I created it for myself back then, but now I’m doing it for you."

    Given that twitter is a pretty popular site and you're the first one to report the issue which cannot be reproduced by me or neither browser, I give you 99.99% that it was something else that was working poorly on your setup. Also I wrote the code and "turn off" means turn off, it just doesn't work.

    you can set "turn off" mode by default and enable it only on websites where it's needed. I'm working on reducing number of issues with services like twitch, google or facebook

    I rely on this add on, however usability took a tumble when the keyboard shortcut stopped working on my environment (haven't been able to debug it). It would be fantastic if the shortcut could be customised to avoid such issues!

    Very weird behavior by the developer all over this page, touting good reviews that aren't real and accusing people reporting bugs as shills.
