brillant growth-hacking from the metamask team :)
- cryptoz 9y agoMaybe it is, but here's my impression of metamask from this link without any prior knowledge or information. Metamask breaks buttons on the web, holding the UX hostage until you comply with its order to install some unknown and untrusted software. I will now avoid 'metamask' for life and if I ever see it I'll run away. I will also occasionally go out of my way to get others to avoid this software, as it seems to do nothing but break UX on the web. Get rid of it! Edit: I'm referring, of course, to the loud, shouting message below the broken website's button that says "ERROR: PLEASE INSTALL METAMASK TO USE THE BUTTON." What did I do wrong? What did I do that so offended this website, that it must show me some secret UI that I cannot access without complying to hostage messages being yelled at my face, and telling me that I'm to blame for the "error"? No, stop it. 'Metamask' is obviously no good.
