    I've got that. It doesn't help with GDPR popups, notification requests, app pushes, etc.

    If you enable the annoyances and cookie notices filters in uBlock it gets rid of a lot of them.

    For specific sites you can also use the element picker mode to create your own custom filter and remove elements. Handy for sites you browse without an account and have popups bothering you about it.
