I still *really* don't understand why there isn't a digital wallet I can just load up and use to buy single articles from any major publication on the fly, zero friction. I'm not happy with paying $50-250/year for one pie when what I clearly want is a spread of slices.

Sound like you basically want to crowdsource/democratise the editorial process. The Facebook newsfeed kind of already does that, and that's resulted in most people feasting on a diet of garbage content.

Ugh, this just feels like the publications missing the point *yet again.* If people wanted selection and curation, they'd still buy papers. I want my twitter feed to do the curation, and then I *just want to be able to read what I find there.*

I've been waiting to fund this for so long. IIRC I may have even tried to talk the Airbnbs into doing it early in YC when I didn't like their idea yet.

Out of curiously, when / why did you start liking it? Was it like an epiphany moment or more gradual?

How is this not already happening with analytics? These papers know who their readers want to read. Whether they're passing this information on to investors is up to them, I suppose

I only wonder whether that would make clickbait even worse.

I don't think so? Right now they're trying to produce clickbait strong enough for me to make a $50+/year commitment to click through
