Please stop with the floating elements on websites. They're hiding your content, and make me want to leave!

No, I don't want to "swipe to the next article" if there's also gonna be a giant floating arrow hiding the text and make me want to stop reading the one I'm painfully trying to read right now.

No, I don't want to "donate" if I can't even fully read what your organization is about because of all those buttons floating over your content.

The goal is to show your content! Why hiding it with a bajillion arrows, buttons, and popups? And please test your website for small mobile display. Your floating elements are ENORMOUS there 😭

@Em0nM4stodon absolutely right - those floaters and popups are a real nuisance. I close sites like these immediately.
