Great post that's similar to my thoughts re the situation here. I'll always be grateful that a misplaced post enabled me to discover this channel of yours, Geoff. Best wishes to you and yours for the new year.

"I hate that they are pre/post pending notifications to try to get my readers to encourage me to go paid (so they can get their skim)." I have never seen those notifications in my always-free nook, and actually had to hunt down where you might be able to disable those. On the Settings page, scroll down to payments: I have a toggle there to turn on/off pledges. I hope that fixes it for you.

thx for that tip, as a "free" writer here, that one helps, everyone complains and that pledge thing actually keeps older readers of mine off the site. But the settings o the settings on this community and payment tabs ARE insane! Who would have thought of a scheme like this, plotted out on a whiteboard somewhere in the basement of a mothership in the Silicon Swamp?!? An insane product manager, unlike u Geoff!

Good tip. That hasn't always been there, so I must guess that they got a ton of pressure on their pressure campaign!

Back at you for the new year. Keep the Music of the Day posts rolling in, great stuff!
