- copperx 3y agoIt's much worse because it took much more time from me than an ad. Usually ads look like ads, even when they're advertorials.
- Paul-Craft 3y agoI agree. There's not actually a lot of content on the linked page, and most of it is generic stuff you can find searching for "how to overcome anxiety" on any search engine. Nothing specific to being an anxious developer at all (though, I admit, I did not click any of the other blog links links yet).
- MD3XTER 3y agoThanks for the feedback. I am curious what kind of content were you expecting if my personal story and suggestions were not enough then?
- MD3XTER 3y agoSo I am curious, it seems like you didn't get any value from that article. Do you have some suggestions that might benefit others or some feedback for me? Thanks!
- arolihas 3y agoWho said anything about betrayal? All the more reason to hate on ads/marketing then.
- MD3XTER 3y agoI would like to get your perspective on how did I exactly play with the reader's emotions, if I just shared my personal story and just gave suggestions on how to deal with stress at work? I am mentioning my program at the end of the article, after I made sure to provide value to the reader... Since my original post, I also included a disclaimer that people don't need to buy my program in order to overcome anxiety and what other things they can do that might help. I hope it all makes it clearer now. Thanks for the feedback!
