  • Subscription Slop

    By Tylor Noe
    Been using this app for quite literally over a decade. Opened it today to look up a word and when I did I was told that I would need to subscribe to learn its definition. Google gave me that definition for free immediately upon lookup. You need to understand that this app was only slightly more convenient at times and that’s the only reason I ever had it in the first place. I hope more companies start feeling a decline in users because they want to put everything behind a paywall. Be ashamed.

    What I like the most about M-WD is how the dictionary finds a way to start with a definition that is clear and simple.

    Do they not vet their advertising? So sketchy to get fake notified of an infection on my phone the same as a porn website when this is a dictionary app…
