Yeah, everybody knows it's which wp theme you choose that dictates whether you can have a paywall or not and not the content!

@cafecortado and I’d happily pay if the content is firstly shown in its entirety, even if it’s just a subset, and if the content wasnt littered by interns having discovered logging or that you can reduce errors by an “if not something” clause at the beginning.

Paywalls don't stop spam and clickbait content. It's like meetup trying to make the most money out of what's left of their former de-facto monopoly, before fading into insignificance.

Yea of some apps the right to existence should be revoked entirely. Looking at you, Zucchini

Thanks to @cg-cnu for the awesome write-up on Medium: https://medium.com/@sreenivas/...

What the fuck is Medium anyway? And what makes them have the audacity to paywall everything? Their site looks like an out-of-the box Wordpress template anyway...
