I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn't bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid "disable your adblock" video, that infuriated me so much... I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn't find such unique catalogs on these sites.

Block scripts, using whatever you want to use. I use Brave (queue criticism)

queue criticism

It's cue.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cue

a signal (such as a word, phrase, or bit of stage business) to a performer to begin a specific speech or action

That last line is your cue to exit the stage.

I assume you were requesting a critique on your comment.

I think they may be British, and want those who wish to criticize to for a queue

It's funny that without actually spotting the mistake I just read it as the op expecting multiple criticisms to and basically telling people bringing them to get in line.
