Thanks to @J☻E for the original tester link and to , and for the followups. A short, local test that reproduces two common cases gives clearer results than a remote page: synchronous popups opened directly during a user gesture (usually allowed) versus asynchronous/scripted popups (usually blocked). The snippet below demonstrates both behaviors so the browser, extensions and any site exceptions can be diagnosed without visiting an external site.

<!doctype html>
<html>
<body>
<label>count: <input id="count" type="number" value="5" min="1" max="50"></label>
<button id="user">Open popups (user-initiated)</button>
<button id="delayed">Open delayed popups (likely blocked)</button>
<script>
const g = id => document.getElementById(id);
g('user').addEventListener('click', () => {
  const n = +g('count').value || 1;
  for (let i=0;i<n;i++) window.open('about:blank','_blank');
});
g('delayed').addEventListener('click', () => {
  const n = +g('count').value || 1;
  setTimeout(()=>{ for (let i=0;i<n;i++) window.open('about:blank','_blank') }, 800);
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Expected outcome and quick troubleshooting: the "user-initiated" control normally opens windows; the "delayed" version commonly gets blocked. If synchronous openings are blocked, inspect the browser's site-settings or any content-blocking extension (many show an address-bar icon when they act). If only asynchronous openings are blocked, the blocker is working as intended. Avoid broad whitelists—allow popups only for trusted origins—and increase the popup count slowly when stress-testing to prevent system overload. This local test complements the web-based checks mentioned earlier and helps pinpoint whether the issue is the browser, an extension, or site configuration.

I use Firefox's built-in popup blocker, and it handled everything perfectly. It blocked everything it should have and didn't block anything it shouldn't have.
