    Maybe if the author chose better tools, they wouldn’t have to wait around? Just like if they chose a better publishing platform (even a shitty one like Wordpress) an impatient person like me would be able to read the article — my general response to a full screen overlay is not to look for some way to dismiss it. I generally just close the tab.

      Maybe they didn’t have time to see how the platform performed for the reader?

    The author chose to host on a platform that does that. So it is their fault

  Yeah, there was a bit of discussion about that on Lobsters :)

  I’ll gladly wait one second, or ten, to never see a newsletter overlay again.
