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.

Block scripts, using whatever you want to use. I use Brave (queue criticism)

queue criticism

It's cue.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cue

a signal (such as a word, phrase, or bit of stage business) to a performer to begin a specific speech or action

That last line is your cue to exit the stage.

I assume you were requesting a critique on your comment.

I think they may be British, and want those who wish to criticize to for a queue

It's funny that without actually spotting the mistake I just read it as the op expecting multiple criticisms to and basically telling people bringing them to get in line.

Maybe they were suggesting that those that are criticizing are welcome but should be orderly and take turns?
