I thought it was cute. You can pull up inspector and delete the pointers div if it bothers you.

Should have a button to disable it. Maybe next to the... useless dark mode button? Funny gimmicks à lá 2004.

"à la", there is no diacritic on "la". "à" means (roughtly) "to" and there is a diacritical mark to distinguish it from "a" as in "il a", "he has". But "la" means "the", like "le" but female, and there is no need to distinguish it from any other homograph.

You’re in luck! Your browser has a button to disable them and it will also activate Dark Mode!

I mean the dark mode button was genuinely funny

Its cute for 2-3 seconds. Not worth the time it takes to delete the pointers manually.

It takes less than a second to press reader mode button.

Easier to hit the back or close button actually.
