God, I miss Reader. It really was a great thing that Google ruined because they couldn’t somehow cram ads into it.
Capitalism only functions when it can absorb the things that can be an alternative to it.
I think it’s like 3D movies. You will make some money off the people who buy into the gimmick, some more off of the people who remember and want the Razr again, and the rest acts as a kind of “hey we’re innovating here!” commercial for the manufacturer.
It’s a dumb gimmick, but it seems like capitalism is almost exclusively dumb gimmicks at this point.
Yes, and I’ve been using beehaw less and less because of it.
