I kinda miss old days of the web with very few login walls. I never login with my facebook, sometime I do with google.
To register and try your product I need to see the demo. Period. Please, do not spam me with newsletters and marketing emails.
- yoha 12y agoOn the bright side, the quality of paywall-free website has quite improved since.
- jbogp 12y agoWell my point here kind of is: most people agree with you. But if you do the website fully without login wall , don't bother putting in an optional login. People like it better without anyway.
- dean 12y agoI agree. I can't tell you how many times I've heard about interesting web sites and checked them out only to find that I cannot do a single thing until I create an account. No demo, no trial, no nothing. Of course I just leave.
- throw7 12y agoI browse without javascript and most sites are crippled this way. I think you can't post here on hacker news without javascript on. The worst is hitting a site that's blank. I hit those every now and then. Instagram is that way.

- kjs3 12y agoI kinda miss the old days of the web when downloading a demo meant only being spammed with newsletters and marketing emails. Now something as innocent as downloading a whitepaper means months of plaintive phone calls from inside sales drones pleading "this is the fourth time I've tried to reach you since you downloaded our whitepaper a month ago. I really need 15 minutes of your time...". No, you don't.
