Hey, author here. I get your point. The internet is filled with pseudo-gurus that try to sell you stuff by writing shit-posts. I’ve been writing for over 10 years. Many posts were scrapped and thrown away. I’m an autodidact, so I learned from blogs like mine. I try to write quality content only, it’s not always possible, but I try. The coaching session you mentioned, is indeed free. The newsletter, is free. And you are not obligated to sign to any of them, you can just enjoy the content if it helps you. I tried to design the blog to be as clean as possible, and that posts will be its center. I also believe that people should be compensated for their efforts. It feels like software engineering is the only industry where people don’t want pay. If I write - I should do it for free, without cringy banners. If I make a software - I should give it away for free with source code attached. If I mentor - I should do it for free. But that’s not how the world works. It’s perfectly ok to give away content for free, which will help to promote other services. And if this makes you anxious, then you should avoid that type of content.
