Set your language to English: you’ll get the nag in English.

Sorry…

Seriously though, install Ublock Origin and block as many Google domains as possible. In Reddit, to get rid of that particular nag, block accounts.google.com and google.com.

Alternatively, don’t do Reddit.

Old reddit redirect or popup off could probably work as well (both are exentions on firefox).

Click the eye dropper symbol in uBlock, that opens the element picker.

Next, click the popup, and then preview > apply

There is a feature (permission) in new versions of Chromium that can help. I don’t remember the name though.

Install ublock, add a filter to block the login prompt in the “my rules” section

Can’t find the exact rules I have but when I’m on my desktop i can reply with them, there’s a bunch of variants I found searching for it but they should all work (unless googles changed stuff)

I use this rule: accounts.google.com/gsi/* Is yours similar?

Yep!

||id.google.com^ ||accounts.google.com/gsi/$3p ||smartlock.google.com^ ||accounts.google.com/gsi/iframe

Feels pretty overkill at this point, can’t help assume most of its redundant but I haven’t run into any issues yet. I got them from this firefox support thread a while back

Firefox on its own blocks some of these popups (in some countries). Otherwise, add some annoyance filters in ublock origin
