Twitch continues to deteriorate as a platform because what do you mean I can't TAB OUT TO MY SECOND MONITOR DURING THE AD BREAK
I NEED TO FOCUS THE TAB AND THE WINDOW FOR THE AD TO PLAY??????
I don't understand how anyone can use the Internet without ublock. I have before, and am about to again, change fuel stations due to them installing those stupid ad playing pumps.
Yeah but uBlock can't or at least doesn't block Twitch ads, so that doesn't really apply here.
it does but with Twitch it's a constant battle. you can go for days or weeks on end and it'll work great then boom a few days to a week and it won't work anymore until the maintainers figure out yet another way to circumvent twitch ads.
It just got to a point for me where I just stopped using twitch. I mean the site overall and the content/streamers have just gotten a lot worse in the past few years and there's really nothing on there anymore worth watching.
You can add a little string of text to ublock and itll work again. Havent seen an ad nonconsentually in years on there
Those are so atrocious. I just found out the closest gas station near my house installed big ass screens on the pumps that are bigger than my largest tablet and have impressively loud speakers. The station previously didn't have any video screens so when I passed by the screen to unscrew the gas cap, and it started blasting the ad I nearly jumped out of my skin.
I don't have a clue where another gas station without the ad screens even is. Blegh 😮💨
And here I actually thought that this shitty idea would stay in the realm of Black Mirror...
For a better experience?? Actually hilarious.
Yeah their experience, not yours
I hate corpo speak so fucking much.
Similar to "we care about your privacy" cookie popups that try to trick you into allowing them to violate your privacy.
If it is publicly-traded, it will be enshittified. This is an ironclad, inviolable law.
I feel like what we're witnessing is just the end of meaningful innovation in the IT field, so now comes the meaningless innovation.
TODAY, on BLACK MIRROR EPISODES in Real LIFE
I kid you not, there's this BM episode where they train on indoor bikes and sleep in pods and have to watch the ad on the screen lest it screeches at them
FUCK YOU TWITCH 🤗💖
the episode was called: 15 Million Merits

RESUME VIEWING
Was an episode of Max Headroom where it was illegal to own an off-switch for your television.
40 years earlier, and still ahead of its time.
I don't care about any platform enough to be abused by it.
Joke’s on them, my computer doesn’t even know whether it’s muted or not.
Them bitches let ya know if you were getting a text. Loved that shit.
Reminder that Sony has patented technology to force viewers into saying a certain phrase in order to continue past an advertisement. Sure, it sounds dystopian, but just look at how happy she excited the little consumer is to enthusiastically shout the name of one of his favorite corporations!
Mentioning this without including the verification can story should be illegal
Why the fuck does my browser need to send it the information that its muted or minimized?
Firefox has plugins to spoof specific tabs as always active.
You should link them so more people can find them easily.
Didnt you guys watch that black mirror episode? It was exactly like this. Look away from ads and you get punished.
"Avoid minimizing or muting for a better experience" Wow, this is beyond nuts.
If i was a Twitch user, i'd dump this right now.
The more the internet progresses the more I feel like text only browsers are the way to go
for a better experience
LOL, fuck your brainwashing.
"for a better experience" lmao
i hope the IT stock market crashes so hard
Twitch is a SOCIAL website, you chat with the streamer and they chat back. All these ads do is interrupt the conversation and it’s SICK to me. It ruins the entire experience. I don’t mind the pop up small ads, but the full screen ads with sound just trashed the entire conversation. Always seems to happen when I ask a streamer a question then BAM 6 full screen ads when the streamer starts to answer me. No, I’m not paying for turbo or a sub, I’m f*ing broke right now.
This ad can't play because I don't watch twitch.
"After this Pepsi ad, go buy a can and scan the barcode to continue watching the show"
Fuck I though this was a satirical shitpost but it's real. This seems like the last stop before that patent about yelling the company name to get back to your content...
I feel like viewing twitch on your second monitor is quite common. That window is almost always going to be out of focus. What a shitty short-sighted system
I dropped them like a bad habit when they first implemented the advertisements. I have never looked back.
Use this extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ttv-lol-pro/
Run your own proxy that supports tons of VPNs: https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun
Set the VPN location to a country that doesn't or can't get ads (Costa Rica is a good one since they're in the test region for 2k streaming).
Set the extension to use the proxy.
No more Twitch ads.
