Video playing, ad that scrolls, two lines of a story, the bottom popping up with notifications every few minutes over the top of more scrolling ads.

Yay internet.

Edit: Oh wow! Did not expect so many responses. First let me say, thank you for taking the time to read and respond! To address the biggest response to use Firefox I actually have it on my phone it's just remembering to break the habit. This was more to show what an average user who just uses what they're used to experiences on mobile browsing.

AdGuard Pro on iOS is decent, but no where nearly as good as uBlock.

I have often seen sites like that, after opening a link from the Google Discover feed that suggests stories of interest to me.

I have just started to block sites like this from showing up in suggested articles. There are almost certainly another site with the same story without shitty pop-in video players.

61 tabs

Damn! With Firefox, it will automatically close all those tabs. To add, uBlock Origin is neat, and also available on Firefox Android.

Don't say that. Firefox will not close your precious tabs kept for distant future(which you probably won't open). Firefox keeps older tabs into an inactive tabs section and thats it. It makes easier to scroll through tabs

If you're on Android, check out Blokada. System wide AdBlocker, no banners anywhere.

And also NextDNS can do the same and you don't need to install anything
