What’s the mindset behind forcing a user to create an account to view the media on a page? For example an artist I like posts their art on Instagram and Twitter but I can’t look at it unless I create an account. What’s the dumb corporate rationale behind this? I have seen this on so many sites you can’t even see what’s there without an account? Doesn’t it just scare users away? I know it certainly does for me. If I have to log in just to view a page I don’t want to view the page.
I think OP is talking about “the meta” in the
sense, but you’re right when it comes to any of these sites.
Correct. I know the overlap between cool gamers and techno-nerds isn’t a flat circle, but i probably should have used a different word because I genuinely forget that META is Facebook and Alphabet is Google. How are these motherfuckers taking such basic words away from us
It’s either basic ass words or the big evil shit from fantasy and sci-fi novels lmao
