Never seen ads on netflix, dont pay for it 

[–] Cherry@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yup even people who pay get adverts. Not used it in years and over Christmas a relative put something on. It has adverts at the start and during the show. I was immediately irate. Wanted to throw a shoe at the TV

I don’t have ads with them. Their poor tier is the ad tier.

I’m close to dumping them though. Price increases are out of hand. Content feels razor thin compared to how it used to be.

It should cost less per person as they grow userbase but instead it costs more. They pocket the economy of scale while we get fucked.
