It had a good period of influence with some cool stories and writers, but I honestly hadn't come across a story from The Awl organically since around 2015.

- dmart 9y agoI personally stopped reading when they switched from Wordpress to Medium - found out recently that they switched back after a year, but it was too late at that point.
- ghostcluster 9y agoSimilarly, I abandoned The Onion and AV Club when they were acquired by Univision and moved to "Kinja". When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. They killed their community and turned all their content to sludge.
- alexkavon 9y agoAgreed. AV Club is a gossip rag now. The Onion is spot on and hilarious as usual, but Kinja is a terrible discovery and reading experience so I don't blame you.
