It's a little like pinterest, in that the groups of curated ads you create can be shared with others. And we use the screen name to do that, rather than giving out your email address.
Also, we have Big Plans on where this will go, and want to be forwards compatible in that regard.
Thanks for playing.
- fragmede 11y agoI think the service itself is a great idea! I especially like that doing it this way doesn't screw up the design of the page so any article is unreadable, which sometimes happens with some ad-blockers. Unfortunately the 'enter your email address; no wait, also give us a username/password crap' flow felt like a bait-and-switch sort of thing and I almost stopped right there. Maybe prompt for a username when a user starts making groups of ads? Curating a bunch of pictures doesn't sound like fun to me (I'm sure that's just me though), so I'll probably never do it, so setting a username for that seems like extra friction. Big Plans are nice, but optimize for little plans so they can take hold first.
