I feel this is partly caused by designers working with huge screens and forgetting that smaller screens exist.

For stuff like that, I always use this bookmarklet which instantly zaps any sticky elements.

Would be cool if it said anything other than something like "I'm sorry I do not understand your request".

There are also those headers that auto-hide when you scroll down, but pop back up at the slightest upward scroll, blocking the line at the top of the screen that you were trying to read.

I wouldn't be surprised if those numbers are made up. Just dark patterns to make it seem like the product is hot.

Though I've found it kinda interesting when websites show little messages like "Someone from country just bought item!".

Literally why do news websites play some random unrelated video when I'm trying to read an article...

I used a shopping website today, where mousing over the header pops up a fullscreen navigation menu, and the only way to close it is to mouse over an empty part of the header. Made me do a lot of cursor gymnastics when trying to switch tabs while avoiding the damn menu.

Some websites like Behance try to 'fix' this by making the footer sticky, but their footer links are useless anyway. It just wastes more screen space along with the sticky header.

Agreed. So many websites want you to sign up for their newsletter before you've even read the first line of text.

For me it's Google search's tab order. They always switch up the tabs for web, images, videos, etc. depending on what you search for. It makes the experience very unpredictable and annoying.

Recently they've also started putting related searches next to the tabs 🤦
