As soon as I see this in a blog, I quit tab. Why do authors do this to themselves?
- Strom 1y agoThey do it when their real goal is to funnel you into a newsletter to later sell you stuff. The only purpose of the article is to show you that prompt.
- sagyam 1y agoSorry about that that is my blogging platform Hashnode. It was lesser of four evils: - Medium which paywalls the article and forces you to sign up just to read. - Substack has same problem, it's great for funneling people to your paid newsletter but there is a sign up banner as soon the page loads. - Build your own and miss out on the social aspect and there's no proof if the numbers are real.
- swyx 1y agohashnode is good. i support you, keep trucking.
