The article is very interesting but the fake cursors are infuriating and make it nearly impossible to focus on the content. It’s a clever joke but without a way to disable it, the author is just sabotaging his own content.
Huh, I had read this on mobile, where they didn’t show up (which I guess, makes sense).
In the HTML, all the way at the bottom, there’s a <div id="pointers" ...>, which you can delete to make them disappear…
How does one make this edit permanent? I’ve been looking to delete the sidebar on fandom, but an adblocker like uBO is not enough, since I need to edit the backgrounds margin. I don’t know anything about webdev, and would be grateful for help.
Well, making such a change permanent on a foreign webpage, that’s not really something you do in webdev, but I happen to know anyways.
What you want is usually referred to as a “user style” and you can achieve that with e.g. the Stylus extension.
You can create a new style and then paste this into it:
@-moz-document domain("fandom.com") {
.global-navigation {
display: none;
}
body {
margin-left: 0 !important;
}
}
Then save it and fandom.com should look nicer.
If you ignore the first and the last line, these are normal CSS rules, so that is then where webdev knowledge can help…
