We’ve got some news to share with you.Ever since The New Stack was launched 11 years ago, our content has been open to any and all readers who find it. No paywall, no registration required.Well, we still don’t use a paywall, because we want everyone to have access to the latest news, analysis and tutorials about software development, deployment and management at scale.But as of today, things are changing a bit. The New Stack is launching a new registration feature so that we can better understand, serve and connect with you.Yes, it’s free, and yes, you’ll have access to our entire library of content.Why are we doing this? Because, as you may have noticed, the media landscape is evolving and AI is changing how everyone finds and consumes content online. Publishers, among many kinds of websites, are finding ways to adapt and learn more about their audiences in an effort to support readers and deliver better experiences.Easy, One-Time RegistrationTo serve up more of what you’re looking for, we want to make this registration process as simple as possible. The registration box asks you for your first name, last name and email address — and a few more details. A verification code will be sent to your email address. After you complete the quick registration, you’ll stay logged in so you can continue using the site as normal each time you return.What will we use this data for? The first thing it will help us do is understand what you might be interested in seeing from us. We’ll be better equipped to create and present the kind of content that you want. Looking forward, we’re hoping to use this information as the basis for a more customized TNS experience that may come with exclusive opportunities.Future possibilities include:A TNS home page view that’s customized to your preferences.Recommendations for your next read, based on the TNS articles you’ve read previously.The ability to follow your favorite authors and save content to your reading list.Newsletters that round up our content about the topics you care most about (i.e., AI, frontend development, Kubernetes, Linux).Invitations to events tailored to your interests.Job opportunities based on your skills and experience.We hope you will register and help us keep serving you better.
