Crude summary:

  • Honey removes affiliate links of others when you click search discount code and puts in their own. Even if they found no discount

  • Businesses can control the discount codes available

  • Businesses can set max discount percentage for Honey users.

  • Honey rarely finds the best discount code and does not update their database with best codes even when users enter them.

Whenever a bunch of influencers start peddling something, stay away.

The hate on Linus is really a bit overplayed. He is no perfect angel but he is not Logan Paul.

Linus is such a douche, I'd pay good money to be able to punch him in the face. Such a horrible influence on the tech community.
