I only pirate. And play it on raspberry pi, libre elec and dumb tv. I never see commercials.

It amazes me that anybody can stand that filth for even a second.

Nice. Jellyfin fan here.

Sometimes it's like I'm living a double life because I'm married to a normie and we're active in the local community where normies of course abound. I got my piracy over here, and I pay for a couple streaming services over there as long as they actually get used, but I still take steps to keep ads away.

It's wild when my wife will just turn on the radio in the car when her phone isn't connected properly, or throw on some live TV stream (whether pirated or a plan somebody shared with us), and it will play minute after minute of ads that don't bother her.

On the car radio it usually doesn't take long before some annoying local dealership ad comes on that repeats the same loud annoying crap they did 20 years ago and I have to turn it off.

I just listen to the main public broadcast radio station in my car. Ads? Only for the album of the week and their own programmes. Usually a few seconds to mention something and very infrequent.
