#i shouldnt have to use a burner email to get the thing i want for FREE

[cosmikazie]

hey, listen, i have an incredible idea. you can use it if you want of course, im not gonna beg for credit or anything

but listen. how about instead of making me make an account, do email confirmation for said account, try to sign me up for a newsletter, and then make me download a whole separate client so i can access the VST you advertised as free

you just have the fucking download link on your website and cut out all this useless middleman bullshit

awesome idea, right?

#can we let the age of needing an account to download things come to an end #i have like 30 different accounts on websites i used to download things ONCE #and they still clog up my inbox with useless news shit that i dont care about #i know someone's gonna say “well just use a burner email” #here's the thing though. i shouldn't have to #i shouldnt have to use a burner email to get the thing i want for FREE #i shouldnt need to have an account to do the simplest things on the internet #this is the world's shittiest marketing strategy too. like this is genuinely worse than trying to spring a paywall for something onto me #i dont WANT your lame ass advertisements #i dont WANT your newsletter #you are legitimately scaring customers away by doing this #let me fucking use a free thing and stop bothering me about it. okay? we good?

okay, update. i swung by the homemate office in ibara, determined to be pissed off and kibishii until someone took me seriously, but the moment i walked in and was like "i know what i want i want this" the woman was just like okay! cool :) lemme get the keys we can go look at it lol are u an eigo sensei? eigo no sensei desuka? why are you moving to ibara it sucks here LOL anyway she was so nice and i'm definitely moving to ibara. my company is gonna try to charge me 770 fucking dollars to move out of my apartment so i sent an email with my statement about how that's utterly unfair and they absolutely shouldnt do that to me, but even if they do want to charge me some kind of fee the new apartment offers 3 months free rent so i'll just tell altia to take their fee from the next 3 months of my rent. i will have to buy a fridge, a stove, a washing machine, and an aircon, but i think i can get by with a single-burner electric hob and a portable mini ac boy and there's a recycled goods store in ibara where they will almost definitely have a washing machine and probably some of these other things i need used for a good price so. yeah anyway excited to get out of here lol

#the fridge i am simply expecting to pay 20000 yen for idc i want a big fridge #its not even a huge one its just like 120 liters like on the small side for normal fridges #t
