“ While much of RTINGS.com remains free, our full test results and in-depth product analysis are now available only to members.”

“ RTINGS.com has historically relied heavily on organic search traffic from Google and affiliate links. That model is becoming less reliable. Fewer people click through from Google organic results than they used to. At the same time, AI actively scrapes and reuses our test results, often without attribution and without the context needed to interpret them correctly.”

theawesomekhan — Tue, 03 Sep 2024 12:19:27 +0000

Surprisingly in some languages such as in my mother tongue "Pastho" : we have the same one single word for Blue and Green. let's call it blue.

So we say "Blue like the sky? or blue like the grass"

New comment by theawesomekhan in "AGPL License"

theawesomekhan — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 14:03:04 +0000

nonetheless, I found their library pretty easy to use and faster compared to the competitors. Sadly due to the licensing issues, I think I won't be using it for sometime ( or ever incase quote is above and beyond expectations )
