Not sure when you tried Thunder last, but it's been very stable for me for quite a while on both Android and iOS.

I won a radio call in contest which made me "brewmaster for a day" at a large brewery. Not only was it a pretty cool day, it also came with a bunch of swag and $1000 prize.
Suits or Suits LA. Catchy tune
I think he's an awful actor, but that's probably not what people are reacting to.
He has a reputation of being difficult to work with as an actor. He also allegedly runs a cult, where he has been accused of taking advantage of young female acolytes.
Jared Leto. Hard pass.
Yes, Intro Skipper plugin. It's awesome.
they make money from harvesting your data then showing you ads based on that data
That's part of it, yes. But they can also sell ad companies demographic data - males aged 25-44 clicked on this or looked at that for example.
Google probably makes more like $50 per user per year on average
I highly doubt the number is that low.
they've got to make money somehow
But they have been, and for years. All the years I've run a smartphone Google has harvested and profited from my data. From Gmail to Chrome (before I switched) to Maps, etc - they have profited from people's data at scale. So the argument that they need to make money somehow falls flat for me.
Also, if they charged like $2 a year to block ads, plenty of people would buy it. But like most things lately, the enshitification of our user experience continues. It's not enough for companies like Google to "make money" - it's never enough and their greed has no boundaries.
That's why you see people like us pushing back - enough is enough.
