sounds like he is fine with it as long as it comes with subscriptions, which makes sense. Maybe my suggestion should have been to subscribe and I wouldn't have been flagged. :)
EDIT: can I please get an explanation of what I've done wrong? Is it too meta?
- freedomben 4y agoI didn't flag or downvote you so I'm only speculating, but I suspect it was killed/flagged for being misinformation. Many people just skim, and don't verify info before spreading it, so a comment like yours could cause it to spread and in this case may cause friction/drama. Again, just speculating.
