“Pop-up insanity, isn’t that the psychological condition affecting Anthony Wiener?”


No,it’s a description of my toaster——NEVER pops up at the right time.

I have tried Brave, the pop up problem is somewhat better, however I was not impressed overall with their service. I find that AdBlocker does an exceptable job.

I’d like to find something that would stop them floating videos from popping up in the lower right corner all the time. Talking about driving someone nuts!

I installed Brave a while back, and it seemed a little rough around the edges. But I reinstalled the latest on both Windows and Mint, and it is looking much better. I have not been too happy with firefox lately, and I was not happy when they kicked out Brendan Eich, so I’m trying Brave for a while.

Here’s where I am with Mozilla. I don’t think they are being honest about not sharing info. I found out through their own stuff that they are sharing everything with the Ford Foundation. And if you know anything about the Ford Foundation they are NOT someone to trust at all.
