Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Bro really tried to sell his subscribers a "50$ a year" subscription to a "wallpaper" app.

Interesting points about the "app":

the app has premium and free wallpapers
the free wallpapers are only available in sd quality and if you want hd youd have to subscribe
in order to unlock the sd quality you have to watch two 30 second ads.
theres a wallpaper called "orange" thats just the color orange

I use subscription services to get the best letters of the alphabet.

For example, I use WinnrWinnrChicknDinnr to get access to the letter W (upper AND lower case!) for only $69 a month!

No idea why they needed my SSN, but look I'm not some pleb that uses free letters.

Psh, I only use the Flushvalve Pro Vowel Pack. You can't beat them in terms of value for your money.
