Today I’m donating my streaming sticks. I got a ONN brand 2k one I bought for 15 and I got an Amazon Firestick 4K I got for $3 from a thrift store because they didn’t know what it was.
And I love the concept of stream sticks, I really do. Too fucking bad that corporate interests got in the way and now everything has to have a bundle of ads at every damn turn. Not even some of the things I’m subscribed to is free from ads because this is the future apparently, we’re here.
Shame because I don’t want to let these go and even if I were to subscribe to Netflix’s ad-free subscription, that’s only one source. Why do that when I can just grab a long HDMI cable, plug it into my desktop and to my TV and I can watch everything that’s there, without ads because of the extensions I use to block ads.
Talk to them man. Faith needs propping up from both sides. So invest in it and say, ideally before your next order, what happened and if they please could try. It may seem as much but it may just make your experience better
I already tried that, thus my frustration. Only so many times you can have them respond in an annoyed manner with that “of course we won’t fuck it up” attitude only for it to be messed up in the same way again
