I'm not entirely sure what connection your comment has to the article itself?

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Aftermath is a crap site that also practices the things they complain about?

[–] aCosmicWave@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I quite enjoy this site. On my journey to replace a lot of my content consumption with RSS feeds, Aftermath found a home in my RSS reader. We are human and humans can be hypocrites but there’s no need to dismiss an entire publication because of a single author's hypocritical stance.

RSS feeds?

What year is it?

Where in the article did they complain about registration or paywalls?

[–] Vordus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

How would they fucking know? The article is behind a paywall!

[–] Goronmon@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Honestly, I hadn't realized there was a paywall on the article after having signed up a couple weeks ago.

I'll actually avoid posting their articles here then. Thanks for the callout.

Edit: Though I'm still interested in hearing about where they are hypocritical. People keep saying Aftermath writers say paywalls are bad, but I haven't seen that anywhere that I've noticed.

LOL! I hope OP replies to this. Something makes me think /u/Goronmon@lemmy.world wont.

Edit: Ah, OP admitted to being a shill! This is a rare occurrence. Let's continue to observe

I don't think you know what "shill" means...
