Not necessarily to justify Gizmodo in this instance, but Slack does paywall their SSO feature behind their Business+ Plan, which seems to currently run $12.50/mo/user, which is about a 70% increase from their next pricing tier. See: https://slack.com/pricing

Given the price difference I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t want to pay for that.

Edit: someone later in the thread linked this page which helps explain why this is generally a bad practice https://sso.tax/

saw this one making the rounds the other day, I think it’s quite fitting https://twitter.com/SaeedDiCaprio/status/1750152798623195473

Also honorable mention to Amelia Tyler for getting runner up for this award!

Ars and Reddit are under the same parent company, conde nast or however that’s all structured. I also have noticed ars seems to write very frequently about Reddit, even if it is usually in a critical light.

I get mixed feelings about articles like this one.

Do you realize how difficult it is to move from one country to another? It’s expensive as hell, and if you’re a US citizen you still owe taxes on money you make while living abroad.

Additionally, the cost to renounce US citizenship is the highest in the world by a large margin. $2350 + exit taxes, as of this writing. https://common.usembassy.gov/en/renounce-citizenship/

Next highest is Jamaica at $1040 as of this writing. https://congenjamaica-ny.org/renunciation-of-jamaican-citizenship/

The USA is an inescapable hellhole for the poor, so think for a few seconds before you make another shit comment like this.
