In case you forgot, here's how this experiment works:
- 📩 Daily Doses (Mon–Sat): Each day's quick read is prime "OMG, I gotta do that!" material.
- 📜 Original Format on Sunday: We'll still serve our old, longread version for the classic crowd.
- 🎯 Your Mission: Compare both styles and tell us which you like better—daily bites or the Sunday big read?
