@anildash My first time reading your website, and this pops up a few seconds in. This behavior ensures that in addition to being the first time, this will also be my last visit to your website.

@anildash @nwd In-app browsers in Mastodon clients and other apps don’t preserve cookies so it will in fact come up every time.
