Ironically, it’s news that’s free, and garbage is behind the paywall. Verge is not what people remember it being from years ago

Yeah the free stuff is probably something that has been reported in multiple places, with a bit of added context.

Meanwhile the paid stuff are all either glorified progressive opinion pieces or in-depth analysis written by someone wholly and completely unqualified to perform said analysis.

I don't know when you think the verge was ever good though. Even during its best years it was putting out shit like that build a PC video.
