Web Annoyances Ultralist - unsuck the web!

Intro

Are you tired of not being able to use all of your screen real estate for the text that matters on a website because floating headers and other distracting elements are blocking your view? Reclaim your screen real estate with Web Annoyances Ultralist!

Block annoying web elements such as sticky headers, dickbars, floating headers, scrolling headers, fixed headers, scrolling videos, stickynavs, social icons, social share bars, smartphone app banners, app download prompts, cookie notices, GDPR warnings, scroll to top buttons, modal overlays, interstitial site overlays, removed or hidden overflow scroll bars, subscription nags, and generally distracting elements that have increasingly been turning the web into a user-hostile environment.

When possible, sticky headers, stickynavs, floating elements, scrolling videos and more will be pinned in place to prevent site breakage.
