alt Hacker NewsUnrelated to the article itself: The login-wall on some random website I've never even seen before feels mildly disrespectful of my time. Kind of similar in vibe to making you download an app to order in a restaurant.

You got to have a paid subscription to read the article. The main output of remap radio is a (number of) podcast(s). The written game criticism articles is an extra.
Yeah, and not obvious immediately. Got reading few pages in before hitting that. Seems like very good article but left disgusted
Very annoying. More and more sites work like that. Not visible at the start. It feels like being scammed a bit
I scan to see if there are one of those dickovers, and if there is I check the archive mirror, but in this case it also has the login wall.
Eh, click back and move on with life. I am not signing up to every fringe website for one off articles. And from the site's perspective losing me as a reader is no loss to them either, because I'm never coming back, run ad blockers, etc.
Have to agree - if they asked much sooner that would fit the pattern but this cuts out just as the article gets going... Bit annoying
