I have no respect (1 Viewer)

[Day]

For these stupid websites that want me to PAY to read a STUDY.



This is what I want to read https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0022103108002412 and you can either login through an institution that subscribes to the website or buy the pdf...

or I could go to google and search for it and find the entire thing for free? You really think in the year of 2022 I'm going to pay to read a STUDY??? HELLO???? Anyway thank you to Research Gate for providing me all the info at no cost https://www.researchgate.net/public..._programs_provide_the_experience_of_belonging

And that first website can get fucked

Yep. Cost is everything to some websites.
why study for a payment, when you can study for free.

websites doing this, is why no one can afford to pay back the hex fees.

They need to do a study on how AO3 treats its users and why other companies can't do the same thing to theirs bc AO3 consistently raises like 200k every time they need funding iirc if you treat the users w/ respect they'll be generous back

agree. some sites treat people as piggybank but a lot of people who choose to study.
are left with no funds, after the payment.

it's both heartless and overwhelming.
