Rather basing a decision and telling people not to get a microphone based on emotions
As an amateur musician and full-time remote meeting attendee, I'll tell you all you need to know about why you shouldn't use a Blue Yeti: condenser microphone. Notice how the recommended mics in TFA are dynamic? You don't want the Yeti because (SWAG here...) it's the mic for folks that don't want to have to become experts on microphones: gimme plug-and-play. So Yeti gives those folks a microphone that picks up every flea fart in the room, unless you make an effort to quiet the room. Whereas a dynamic mic in the general case picks up what's in front of it, and doesn't pick up noises that are more than a few feet away from the microphone. So when you're dog's barking in the next room at the Amazon driver, the dynamic mic won't pick that up.
And people that go to the trouble to quiet a room don't buy Yetis, nor do people that buy Yetis want to go to that trouble.
