I’d say their decision making was mostly forced by their drop in ad revenue and subscriptions forced by the internet.
Though I do wish that someone would make a Spotify for news so that I could pay once and get access to all of them and at least give them 10 cents per article or something, because I will never pay the subscription cost any are asking.
As much as I’d like to support them, the price to utility ratio is way the fuck off at the prices they ask now.
I’m okay except for the walled garden part. I get referred to articles in many ways, none of them in Apple News. If I can ever log into the actual publications sites with my Apple ID and get the article, then I’m on.
That’s not an experience I’m willing to pay for in its current form. But I could definitely see a path for it to become one, thanks for putting it on my radar.

That’s kinda what Apple News+ is but stuck in their walled garden.

it’s a little annoying but i find searching for the article title generally produces the right result in the news app
