The puzzle company The New York Times shows stories on the main page of its app that I, as a subscriber, have to pay extra to read without any marking until I tap on the story. Great strategy.
@glennf They don't even let you see the writer's name or the sub-title. With the NYT penchant for shitty title writing that makes it even more egregious. It's even stripped out of reader mode. Ah well. I'm not inclined to give them a dime under their current ownership, management, and modus oprandi anyway.
@jsnell Weirdly, no. Wirecutter, I know there's a monthly limit, but I don't seem to hit it. Cooking, yes, but again, some Cooking stories/recipes are free, too. Baffling—not a consistent experience in notification or use.
