a945a9o5u9··on Tell HN: LinkedIn has one of the worst dark patterns I have seen on the web
What happens when you do these days? Prime delivery has gotten so crappy the past few months I'm considering cancelling. The past six months, orders that are promised in one day or two days routinely take a week or more, and I'll get emails every single day telling me they'll be delivered that day. I figure maybe they'll ask me why and offer me a free year, something like that.

And that is exactly why I left my last company. As person #4 I was offered 1% over four years, an extremely below-market-rate salary, and no benefits. I left after exactly one year and didn't bother to exercise my 0.25%. People #2 and #3 left a little while after that. Person #1 / CEO / CTO / Maker-Of-All-Decisions is still there, somehow, still funded by monthly donations from family members and now crowdfunding.
