Protopage's pop up. I can't find anything that blocks it.

Protopage's pop up. I can't find anything that blocks it.

If you don't use an adblocker at all, you get a pop up that greys out the screen and you have to click it. There are also now advertisements on the page that I've never had to deal with until recently.

pop-up ad

If you do block it then you have this bar at the bottom of the screen that prevents you from seeing the very bottom of your page.

If you block the element you get something like this. "protopage.com##.\37 jesdq4pg2ew"

However, if you reload the page the element is back and if you try to block it again it's just another random letter / number combo.

Don't care about YouTube, don't care about Twitch. What's a good ad blocker that gets all the other stuff?

I have ad free YouTube through a family share account and I don't watch Twitch. I used to use the holy grail of uBlock Origin on Chrome that took care of all the little pop ups and side bar crap that you'd see on sites like speedtest.net I have a Pi Hole installed on my network that takes care of most of it, but I need something client side that can block all of the JavaScript junk.

I'm just looking for a good barebones blocker that gets rid of all that junk, but all the posts here are focused on YouTube and Twitch.

TO SAVE YOU THE TIME: Not entirely interested in switching to Firefox.

Any way to batch remove ads from podcast mp3 files by using unique "ad time" sounds as markers?

Title wording is a bit awkward but basically I listen to podcasts using audiobookshelf which downloads the episodes as mp3. The ads are part of those files but there's a distinct "ad break" sound effect that signals when ads start and when they end. Meaning before and after ads nothing but this sound effect plays before it gets back to the podcast.

Since this is a unique sound effect that doesn't appear anywhere else and is always the same I feel like there should be a way to automatically remove everything between them, including the ads. The result would be the podcast episode completely devoid of ads. I've look a bit but can't find a way to do this with Audacity. Is there a way to do this (and is there a different sub where I could ask this)?

Twitch Ad block fix so far

On the Brave browser, go to extensions, turn off all of your other ad blockers, turn on the Pie Add Blocker, and also enable video player overlay. Refresh your Twitch page; in your live stream, it should not have added anymore. I solved it earlier today. And posted the fix on Reddit. Apparently, it’s working according to the people on Reddit so far.
