I loved this when I first installed it. It was a great way to catch headlines, until their API stopped delivering fresh content. It has been several weeks and it is just delivering the same headlines. Seems like the project shut down but they didn't let anyone know....
2020-10-07 Anand Raj The snippets URL does not work. When I click Copy URL (of the format: https://thehustle.co/snippets/?id=<id>) and paste the URL in browser, i get a webpage with blank whitespace. It does not show me the contents of the website other than the side tabs.

I like it, but wish it had a dark mode. Dark reader can't rewrite the colors on this for some reason

Is there a dark theme in the works! It is really BRIGHT!

Love the variety of headlines, the links to the stories, and it instantly loads. Plus, I only see it when opening a new tab. Pretty sweet if you ask me.

Love the quick write ups of the articles. Only downside is the rabbit hole it can cause.

They seem to rely heavily on paywalled news sources. It's not theHustle's fault, but I don't like getting asked to subscribe to Quartz just to see what the snippet was all about. Big reason for liking theHustle in the first place was that it distilled a bunch of news into an easily consumable email. I always disable my adblocker for news outlets, but I don't have the money to support every single one of them with a subscription, so the hard-paywalled sources are no go for me. This would be much better if they prioritized free/ad-supported news sources.

Initially it was OK, now it has locked my Chrome browser. Every time I go to a new tab the Snippet appears and stays. How do I unsubscribe?

Works. Only problem is when you make a new tab, enter in a url, and go back in your tab history because you want to look at it again, it's a different snippet.
