My browser extension StopTheMadness Pro stops autoplaying videos and hides Sign in with Google on all sites. It also hides sticky videos and notification requests on many sites.

For more extreme measures, try my Safari extension StopTheScript. It kills JavaScript dead on websites you select. For example, from the blog post, it makes The Guardian readable.

@lapcatsoftware @daringfireball I’ve taken to actually reading the domain name of search results to avoid publications. I hit cmd+w the second an ad blocks my view of the content. I’ve configured some sites I can’t avoid to use Reader Mode by default. I wouldn’t be able to tell you what they looked like, I haven’t seen them in years.
