    Is there anything that disables / stops sticky videos when scrolling on mobile?

    I get pissed off when I’m reading a news article, scroll down, and their headline video (often just an ad) clips itself to the top 1/3 of the screen.

      Well ublock origin. If it does not block it rigjt away, you can actually try to manually add a rule.

    Aside from the popular ublock origin I’d get Sponsor Block. Too bad my mobile version doesn’t support it.

      How do you use no script these days, are you turning it on after visiting a page, or whitelisting when things don’t work?

        I whitelist after visiting a page, if it breaks majorly so I can’t use it. And often I only need to allow the main page’s scripts and maybe video., img. or cdn. subdomains.

        True, and according to some sources on the FF forum the builtin is better. I just installed it years ago and mostly forgot lol

      What’s Karrinator?

      There’s nothing that explains it on its description page. Based on comments on its page (translated to English), my wild guess is: it’s making people laugh while reading news somehow by changing names of politicians in the news articles.

      Thanks for the other suggestions too.

        Damn, I just noticed I accidentally wrote in german, I didn’t even notice the post is in english lol. To Germans it would make sense, as it’s exactly what you noticed; it just changes Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauers name to something funny, she’s an ex-defense minister of Germany.

            Well, it’s based on an apparently pretty large set of funny names for her, thought of by r/ich_iel etc.
