Can anyone anonymously report on the numbers of people who actually subscribe from the dark pattern of scrolling up or off the page and showing a full screen modal to subscribe?
- tyfon 3y agoFor me that has the opposite effect, I got the back button and add the domain to my dns blocklist. But I remember someone posting here that the tiny percentage actually signing up made up for the majority that got pissed off as they wouldn't generate any revenue anyway. This enshitification has me down to perhaps 4-5 websites that I browse regularly, HN still being one of the better.
- AlienRobot 3y agoYes, after all, with 1 dollar RPM, 1 user paying 10 dollars a month in a subscription is worth 10 thousand hits in ads. In other words, you can piss off 9,999 people, that last 1 guy will make it all worth it.
