"but don't come crying on HN when you are locked out of all of them because"
I don't think the user is at fault here, Google needs to improve its auth/session management.
- 3np 5y agoGoogle doesn't "need" to change anything. They have a particular model and you can choose to either: * adopt/accept it * use available tools (which have been proposed here) to do things differently in a way you prefer * look for alternatives There are times when feedback can help things improve but in this scenario you're asking for a fundamental shift that is just not aligned with their model. Along the lines of "I don't want to see ads on top of Google Search results but I also don't want to use adblocker technology; Google needs to improve the way they present search results".
- MarcellusDrum 5y agoI hope you realize you are being unnecessarily hostile with your answers. OP and the commentor you are replying to are asking legitimate questions, and giving solid criticism for a popular service most of us has no choice but to use. Being all like "Fuck you, don't use it then" adds nothing to the conversation.
- 3np 5y agoI get what you mean with my second one - but the first one was meant at honest advise and a rule of thumb. Text can make words appear harsher than they're meant at times. And well, OP posted it as an "Ask HN" but their followup replies make it quite clear that they're not about genuinely understanding or finding a way to make it work but about venting, which is not what "Ask HN" is for. > Being all like "Fuck you, don't use it then" adds nothing to the conversation. This is really not what I'm saying. Note there are three points up there, not two.
