I mean, yeah. I signed up for a year of Prime last summer. They just decide to put in ads? At least wait for the subscription to expire before pulling this crap.

Every time they do something like this, I wait longer and longer to resubscribe. It's just been getting worse, not better.

Bezos, just go to Mars already with the rest of the billionaires. Guess how much taxes you'll save up there. We don't need you.

I totally agree with you. I’m slowly starting to self host due all this streaming platforms bullshit.

Fuck Amazon!
