A thing that I have only just realized that I loathe about newsletters: when links in the newsletters have self-referential preview URLs. So when I hover over all the many clever links in “Your Newsletter,” they show up as taking me to yournewsletter.com followed by a hash that only on the server resolves into the actual URL, leaving me with no sense whatsoever about what I’m going to get myself into if I click. In the year of the internet 2024, this is some bad privacy and security practice, man.
For the love of all that’s holy, get a blog. I have an RSS reader and I’m not afraid to use it.
