Pophurdle has run on 200k pages!

I still can not believe people are using the internet that much!

I'm currently finishing up the v1.0.2 update that will automatically block popups without the need of pushing the button! Be gone popups!

If you have not checked it out yet, it's free for alpha users and will help stop the disable Adblock popups while also dealing with passable paywalls when browsing. The end goal is helping creators earn a portion from it too!

Check it out here:

The update is coming fast and will break ground in automatically blocking these sites in a whole new way!

Cheers!

    Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't there heaps of other extensions available for blocking popups?

      This one is a little bit different, data will anonymized as much as possible to provide basic feature support. Other blockers are pretty nasty when you take them apart and look at the way they track your full-on with IP addresses and fingerprinting everything you touch.

        You should certainly mention that on your homepage. I develop extensions too and I see that a lot of people are conscious about extensions grabbing their personal data.

        Btw, does this block admiral popups?

    Hi Aidan!

    I do similar stuff in Snap Search - website/app - with the same objective - a distraction free browsing experience. The latest update I put out blocks the GDPR/Cookie consent popups. Would you be up for a quick chat?

      Id love to connect sometime! I see how we could have some overlap and it seems that yours is more for helping the user's privacy without being tracked, ours could be a possible power couple sometime in the future!

        Yes that's exactly what I'm hoping for! Hit me up via mail or twitter sometime when you're free.
