I'll save you all a click
So, basically, stuffing more ads into the premium service you paid for (presumably to avoid ads). These people don't get it, do they?
Oh, they get it, alright. They're making more money than God, which is entirely the goal.
We need to be autocritic here. Most of us don't get it. That's the problem.
The Mouse can fuck the right off with that. We've had subscription for quite a while since there's a ton of stuff for our kids but if they start to overlay shows with pop-up ads not unlike The Truman Show I'll rather set up a jellyfin server and dust the old pirate hat than continue to give them money.
Same. I won’t tolerate pop ups. We didn’t when the internet was new and I sure won’t when watching a show I’M PAYING TO WATCH.
Arrrr, they don't.
This should be funny but somehow it doesn't do it anymore
