gollark: They would have close buttons but they would only work 50% of the time.
gollark: Oh, and ones asking for cookie consent and newsletter signup.
gollark: But there would also be a popup asking you to download the app, which would not actually work because I'm not making an app, as well as one asking you to add it to your home screen as a PWA.
gollark: Then it would load into a page containing a bunch of links to all the actual *content*, but each would have a vaguely nice-looking but irrelevant image to occupy half the page and also your internet connection.
