This sub seems like a scam with these "how I earned this and that" posts. (alien.top)

If someone wants to help others with their story or brag I'm ok with it. Just don't link your fking blog or some shit because then I won't read it. That's where it starts to look scammy and predatory.

Nothing wrong with that. If you read a great post, why wouldn't you want to learn more? It's crazy that so many get offended. Bunch of snowflakes.

Snowflake? Offended? No one is either, but just people with normal brains who know when they're being fed some lame ass attempt at marketing. You're a snowflake when you don't want cringey adverts in the discussions? Gtfo

They're not ads. Usually just asimple link that you can easily ignore. You're not forced to click it.

[–] MachineAgeVoodoo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I know they're not ads that's why I said lousy attempt at marketing:)

If there is an interest of joining Newsletter or sending traffic to his website, then his story is definitely a made up.

This. I’m all for seeing other peoples’ success. A lot of them provide value and insights in their posts. But these “case studies” that funnel into a newsletter are getting annoying.
