THA BIG RANT:
It's interesting that people think that content, infraestructure, and the people behind WN are created just like writing fiction. You want it to exist, and after you type some words, it exists by the magic of your imagination.
But it's real life.
It has costs. COSTS. COSTS!
People find a Chinese novel on internet and asks: TRANSLATE IT. I WANNA READ IT! WN translates it.
then: TOO FEW OPTIONS! GIMME MORE! WN gives you more.
then: IMPROVE THE APP! they start working on it.
then: WANNA ORIGINALS! they start paying originals.
But you guys don't want to pay anything. It's too much "gimme gimme", like 2yo toddlers throwing tantrums.
WN it's not perfect. But it needs to be paid, regardless. Authors, translators, editors, IT guys and programmers, costs on rent, equipment, servers, and etc etc. Netflix it's not perfect either, people also complain about content choices, bugs and whatever, but it needs to be paid the same.
Don't pretend to be so dumb you can't understand it. If you can't, you're really a toddler that cannot see beyond your hands.
-"OH, I don't have money but I still wanna read!"
You can watch the movie's trailler for free, but they don't let you go watch the full movie in the theather if you don't have a ticket. But you still can watch other movies available in the open TV. That's your option when you claim you don't have money for a ticket.
OR... prioritize what you want and make money for it. Stop acting like a baby. Pay for the fun you consume.
That's how world works.
-Wanna endorse piracy?! It says much about you, not about WN. If you are the one who think it's fair to steal, there's a name for it. And it's not Robin Hood.
Don't forget Megaupload, Pirate Bay and the such paid a price, in the past, and in US some people who consumed pirated movies and songs were sued as well. Nobody judged whether the songs or movies had high quality and "deserved" to be pirated. If you are stealing, it's because you think it's worth something.
-Free options? Of course there are some... by now.
There's NO FREE APP in the world. They start free, but they won't be free forever. Costs raise and must be paid.
Ads don't pay the costs. It's like people who think Youtubers make millions only on Google Ads. That's not how they make money.
OH such an annoyance to deal with people acting as toddlers.
What is free, is free, but to Caesar what's Caesar's.
Don't @.
