Hey, Mindy. I’m the author of the site. I wanted to let you know that I made the opt-out more basic (“No thanks, maybe later.”) Though only a few people have been bothered by it, all I’ve got right now is my relationship with visitors (the site makes no money at the moment). The goal was never to insult anyone, just to establish a light tone. Someone sent along some articles for me to read, and I heard the feedback loud and clear.
I’m guessing you visited while we were frontpaged by Reddit and absolutely melted into the ground. The site has recovered, so maybe you’ll take a shot and try it out sometime here. Thanks for your feedback.
