I look forward to that write-up.

Same. A Twilio-like aggregator for affiliate marketing could have been a special idea. Content/review sites could just sign up and have any product they reference from their content linked to the appropriate affiliate program.

They went in a more consumer-focused direction though. I wish them luck.

It should be white text on a blue background. That's what I see. Perhaps it looks different on different computers. I am NOT a designer though, so I won't even pretend to argue the current design is optimal.

Yeah, I for space reasons I treated them as more similar than they are. Definitely a weakness of the post. My problems with Reddit are more my lack of ability to use it to filter only relevant content for me and strip out, for lack of a better phrase, the "geek content" that's always on its home page. Just seems really hard for a non-tech guy to navigate/get value out of. My concern is not getting content there, but being able to only read the right content for me as a user.

I agree that's the main reason online news is broken, and I started with that reason in my post. I'm proposing that the high quality content part won't be fixed, and see a possible alternative is us and our peers doing more work ourselves to provide the context that matters to us in our jobs.

Thanks for reading.
