Nope 2 Overlays Extension

Tired of getting those annoying \"It looks like you’re using an ad-blocker\" popups?

Tired of using an extension only to find out the page is not scrollable or
the page is blurry and unreadable?

Then Nope 2 Overlays is the solution for you!

Dismiss email newsletter overlays, and special offers modals as well.

Initially created for personal use after having one too many bad experiences with other extensions. Some would work for simple sites but eventually fail on another site. Most extensions use the same logic for all sites, ignoring the fact that sites are unique.

We aim to be a constantly evolving extension with the help of Chrome users to stay ahead of the curve and keep bad popups down.

### Features:
☞ No performance impact on your browsing. It will only activate when triggered.
☞ Your preferences are not saved, just refresh to see the popups you removed again.
☞ Defaults to using a generic logic for most unknown sites.
☞ Custom logic for all sites on the 'supported' list to guarantee removal of overlays and free updates when the sites change/update.

★ With your help we can identify and grow a list of sites
that circumvent extensions like this one and add them to our 'supported' list.

★ Supported list of sites is available publicly on [Github](https://github.com/redballoon/chrome-extension_Nope2Overlays_support-list) to make it easier to track and update. Those who are familiar with the site can create pull requests or issues for sites they have identified.

★ You can also send us sites to add through this [form](https://goo.gl/forms/4shqVwIRPgonvprr2)


### FAQ
**Does it only work for supported sites ?**

No, it will also run on unknown sites and try it's best to remove overlays. If you have any issues with a certain site you can always contact us with this [form](https://goo.gl/forms/4shqVwIRPgonvprr2).

**I found a site that doesn't work, how do I add it to the supported list?**
You can either send us the info through this [form](https://goo.gl/forms/4shqVwIRPgonvprr2) or through Github if you are familiar with it.

Lorenzo (Darudestorm) (ID: 00000040303a8183) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/21/2022 everyone giving 1 star is completely clueless about how web pages work. This won't work on every page, it is impossible, but it is still super helpful.

Pat MySecret (ID: 0000000f565a0b8a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/05/2021 Great! Happened upon it by chance, and I didn't know how much I would like it until I tried it! In my opinion this is best run in tandem with an =automatic= overlay remover. It makes an essential team! I am also currently running extension "Auto Overlay Remover". Just this morning, I got an overlay prompting to turn off my Adblock. The "Auto Overlay Remover" extension didn't catch it. Momentarily, I had this extension, "Nope to Overlays", disabled , so I know it wasn't interfering w/the other app. "Nope 2 Overlays" helps save me from messing w/my adblock program! While it's not an answer to every internet gimmickry out there, it really does help with many "jump at ya" items. 11/21 Though I still appreciate Nope2Overlays, I've started to rely more on ReaderView extensions and the better ones sort thru the ads/overlays.
