I’m gonna make a streaming service that’s all ads because apparently people don’t give a damn about it anymore.

The move could lower CPMs but potentially hurt performance.

Not-surprisingly absent from the statement; will likely ostracize users.

I already unsubbed from Prime when they started inserting ads into a service I already paid way too much money for.

Yo ho, lads.

I did the exact same. The enshitification doesn’t stop, it always gathers shit.

I have prime. But I still pirate all the content on it.

Same. They should honestly thank us for it. Still paying for prime while removing the load on their servers.
