Yep, absolutely horrendous and totally unreadable on iOS safari. First a modal pops up with the “no thanks” beyond the fold (and weird scrolling behavior). Once I finally figure out how to close it, I’m at the bottom of the page. If I scroll up, I see the first few sentences and then an email form. No thanks.
Funny that the site is from a VC firm. Maybe their business judgement ain't so hot? Or their funds aren't doing well so now they have to resort to begging for emails?
On iOS the “Unobstruct” app ($0.99 - no connection to me) removes the popover nicely. It’s also great for removing dickbars that block a horizontal slice of the page.
