Usually you don’t even need that, they just cover the page with a div that you can delete in inspector.

There's also this bookmarklet which deletes fixed elements (unfortunately I don't know the original author):

  javascript:(function()%7B(function%20()%20%7Bvar%20i%2C%20elements%20%3D%20document.querySelectorAll('body%20*')%3Bfor%20(i%20%3D%200%3B%20i%20<%20elements.length%3B%20i%2B%2B)%20%7Bif%20(getComputedStyle(elements%5Bi%5D).position%20%3D%3D%3D%20'fixed')%20%7Belements%5Bi%5D.parentNode.removeChild(elements%5Bi%5D)%3B%7D%7D%7D)()%7D)()

This is a very useful skill. I run into a surprising number of pages where invisible elements prevent you from continuing (unintentionally, eg payment forms).

Also that crap on the bottom of every Medium article.

"kill sticky" is amazing for this. One click gets most annoying stuff.

That's at least two clicks. Disabling JS with a plugin like disable-HTML is one click.
