From the article:
According to EarthSky, this comet (known colloquially as Comet A3, for obvious reasons) is special, as it’s the brightest to cross our planet’s sky in 27 years, leading some to dub it the Comet of the Century.

We were able to see it with the naked eye. Our area has less light pollution than most, but still very much not a dark zone.
Wait long enough after sundown that it gets pretty dark. Even if its lower in the horizon, it'll be easier to see if it's still in your field of view.
I went to the beach with some friends to watch at sunset. We kept looking for it. Even using Stellarium and binoculars we didn't see it and assumed it was too low to the horizon and obscured by haze.
It got dark. We figured we weren't gonna see it. We started looking at the other stars/constellations as they became visible with advanced darkness. We were just about to pack up and go home when we realized we could plainly see it!

Should everyone go destroy art galleries? Housing crisis = art destruction?
Do you not agree? Over half a million homeless are without homes. People are dying, and the homeless are largely being dehumanized or ignored. There is a very real human cost far beyond a piece of art or the barrier protecting it.
If you're looking for objective quantifiable criteria on right vs wrong, you'll never find it. Morality often falls into a grey area involving tradeoffs, but bringing attention to a societal issue with huge human costs just for splashing soup on a plastic barrier seems pretty effective to me.
Reminds me of the beginning of the pandemic when he tried to dismiss the initial uptick in covid cases as a migrant worker problem.
What an incredible website. Use of page you go to read their privacy policy is blocked by the popup that requires you to accept their privacy policy before continuing to use their site.
Good point. I guess that depends on a quality over quantity promise, which I guess would also fit op's idea.
Also worth noting Israel is very advanced with respect to cybersecurity. Considering they provide tools like Pegasus to US intelligence agencies, I'm sure the agencies value this relationship very much.
War always has civilian deaths. It's an unfortunate consequence.
This is different. Gaza is being flattened by the indiscriminate bombing. Its ridiculous.
That would make business side incentives more aligned with the user side, but I could never see anything with a high barrier of entry accumulating enough users to actually be usable.
Maybe its free at first and as it grows in size and activity the cost goes up? That feels kinda sketchy
