The first half of the book is great.
The second half has ads that take up more and more of the page until you reach a page that is just ads and a QR code.
When you scan the code, it takes you to a page asking you to pay a subscription for the remaining pages.
(If you rate five stars, they send a 10% discount code to your email and add you to a newsletter list without an unsubscribe button.)
LoL I thought you were serious for a second
Isn't that the point though? The book enshittifies
Or am I missing the ironic tone?
Just a touch too close to reality. That was a beyond-awesome comment.
Do you have any screenshots? And is it the retail version or is it some early version? Retail's supposed to only come out in October.
Whoosh
It's a joke, mate.
Honestly believable though. What better way to be subversive.
Oh, woosh..
