Noooooo! It was great most of the time and with a laugh when not.

Would you consider enabling it on request? If someone mentions it in a post or a comment it could reply with a summary.

I liked it!

It was clear what & how it did it, and it was great.
I don’t think anyone seriously interested in the posts subject would fully rely on tl;dr alone of any kind.
It was a free preview that delivered way beyond that.

It also helped lower the plague of ads being spread with some extra ady pages, as well as deliver content when the links were down.

… and I always upvoted the bot. Good bot.

Another voice to say I really liked it and appreciated it. But I understand feeling discouraged by some people’s comments, it suck to feel unappreciated when you did a cool helpful thing. Hope you reconsider but I certainly don’t hold it against you!!!

I liked it. Thanks for your work.

The problem is that many journalists these days get paid by article length/word count, so they inflate the shit out of it and hope whoever is in charge of proofreading doesn’t cut too much out. If you compare articles written in newspapers/websites where they still have a regular staff on payroll vs. those that have more “guest authors” than anything, you’ll immediately see what I mean. It’s a shame really.

I liked it since it allowed me to avoid clicking on the articles themselves.

I have definitrly been reading autoTLDR and will be sad to see it go. Hope you reconsider!

Yeah, I was always glad to see it whenever an article piqued my interest. Thank you for your work, and hope you reconsider.

As someone else suggested, tell people who don’t like it to block it.

Just adding to the “maybe reconsider?” comments. I found it useful and I think it’s trivially easy for annoyed users to simply block it. Why should their laziness remove something many of us like? Idk, maybe allow each magazine’s (community’s?) mods to decide for their specific magazine/community? That would be a lot of effort though, probably.

Whatever you choose to do, cool tool and thank you :)

Hey, I liked it! Except for that one nasty bug where it discarded about half of the article text. I’d like to see it back, but without the TLDR part. Just the full article please. It’s way more comfortable than opening a separate webpage and waiting for all ads and paywall prompts to load.
