Just want to highlight a few of my favorite authors from the site. I don't have specific articles saved, as I can't even remember what I read this morning, but I always look forward to any article by these people whenever they come up on my feed.

@petrana.bsky.social's entertainment articles are always so much fun to read. She's often how I found out when shows I like are coming back, writes great reviews, and makes slightly unhinged lists like her recent Matt Murdock chemistry list where she put herself as an honorable mention.
@nicolecarpenter.bsky.social does great reporting on gaming news, keeping us informed on all the major layoffs, lawsuits, and everything else that goes on behind the scenes at those companies. Also her enjoyed her contributions on all the lists Polygons puts out.
@thesaintoftous.bsky.social was another entertainment author who seemed to write about anything and everything, from film, and anime to games, while keeping the high-quality writing I enjoy from him. I especially look forward to the horror-based articles, which always had a good perspective.
@pokachee.bsky.social writes a lot of good articles, but I also see her putting out an insane amount of the game guides each week. I will certainly use them in the future when I inevitably get stuck.
Lastly, the video team still put out plenty of high-quality video essays, with fun live streams as well. I watched @doomquasar.bsky.social, Patrick Gill, and @claytonashley.bsky.social for years now, and hope they continue to make great videos elsewhere.
There are plenty of other great authors and creators at Polygon that I didn't mention, but all of them were incredible and deserve to be hired to continue their amazing work elsewhere, at a place where they will be treated better than Vox Media treated them.
