Oh, definitely agree with you on that one. I was only defending the right of a platform to suggest content to its users, regardless of what that content is

I've seen/read so much good stuff about this game. It's not my usual kind of game, but I think I'll end up trying it

It's a chicken and egg problem. Media on the internet started doing clickbait stuff to get clicks and to be able to survive. I'd argue that you should be paying money to the ones who do an honest effort to do a good job.

Also, you talk about "big news companies" like it's actually a thing. There are no really big news companies anywhere. Not by market cap, nor by employees, nor by any other metric. There are influential ones, such as the NYT, but none of them are really big if you compare them to any other economic sector. News is not a good business, like any other public utility: it's essential to society but does not make any money.

Click Here sounds awesome, thanks for the recommendation!

Same here! My only gripe with the whole network is that it's financially struggling and that has some effects on the podcasts themselves. All About Android getting shut down is a prime example. Also I think the guests were better (or just more famous?) some years ago, but that may be a symptom of the higher competition in the podcasting space. I wonder if you have the same impression!

This could be completely useless. Every nurse will tell you that the only way forward is a collective job contract with better pay and more time off. Lots of nurses night now get burnt out very quickly

Holy cow. I had never seen it before. Can I say that I don't like this at all?

I was using AdAway before switching to Adguard. I loved it, but my problem with it was that it kept disconnecting randomly.
