hey Tom! Can you please explain this line: > 55,000 of you have come to the site every single day this year. Does it refer to DAU, or to a very specific group of hardcore fans who visited the website every day for the last year?

Can you break down or expand on paying for “fewer ads” vs no ads? I’m a big supporter of paying for no ads anywhere I can find it but paying for ad reduction is not a thing I can support.

This is unfortunate. I understand the need to monetize but news is never so groundbreaking where you need to pay for it. Especially when you can get it from a million different sources. Hopefully we don't see content that normally would be free put behind a paywall.

the downfall of the verge started with the last asymetric weird redesign and downhill ever since. It’s like watching Blackberry.

I’m gonna be blunt, I ad block but I will pay for a service I enjoy if it supports the company. However the fact that this only reduces ads is a turn off. If you’re going to ask for money at least remove the ads entirely for paying subscribers.

@reckless Why should access to The Verge live feed become paid? It's so strange!

Fewer better ads for $7, where did you guys get the idea from? 😜

'fewer' ads? Why not zero ads if someone pays?

You guys should know by now that people are fed up with subscriptions. I don’t think anyone wants to pay for a service to still see ads.

"pay to get fewer ads" So even if you pay monthly, you still get ads thrown at you? 🫨

If you ask $7/month, the number of ads you should see is exactly zero

…so you’re paying but still getting some ads? Don’t some of the newsletters already require a payment? Saying the news “will all remain free” seems somewhat inaccurate

I'm sorry, but FEWER ads? This makes no sense for a reader.

Sorry 😞 I can't pay for subscriptions for everything on the internet. I'll continue to share and open for metrics, though.

@reckless pay to watch fewer ads, maybe learn a thing or two from YT premium, you pay to not see ads! you're not providing ground breaking news for me to spit out 7$, give us the old cool verge from the early 2010's

It would be a better customer experience to clearly flag which content is behind a paywall and which is not when scrolling the homepage. Right now it feels misleading and frustrating because the paywall is unexpected since homepage scrolling is “free.”

Your asking people to pay money for "fewer ads" get in the bin.
