As pointed out by many in this thread (and when I was on TalkBoard when the topic came up on something that was a very hot topic), many FTers read FT while not logged in. They have a variety of reasons for not being logged in, but the primary one is they only log in when they want to post something.

Until the recent software change, their experience on their mobile devices whether logged in or not logged in was exactly the same. The software change turned their FT experience while not logged in to a piece of crap, simply because of the infinite scroll issue which no one asked for & there have been hundreds of complaints against.

Your comment (well really IB's) that they should be required to log in so they can avoid something that IB implemented that was not asked for is dismissive, shows hubris & disdain for FTers IMO. Thanks (not) for forcing FTers to read FT the way you want them to do so & not the way they choose to do so.

Cheers.
