    After fifteen years, I cancelled my Netflix last year. Don’t miss it at all.

    I think all these streaming platforms forget that not all of us need to watch their content 24/7. I spend less than an hour watching television a day while eating food and that’s it.

    Did you know that you can still enjoy Youtube ad-free (or the occasional 10-second skippable ad). How do you do it? By not watching youtube at all aside from the random how-to video. Since I watch less than an hour of youtube a month on average, I see essentially zero ads.

      I will literally go out of my way to see an ad. I have stopped watching TV, except some HBO but avoid paying. I am searching random questions or products in incognito so my regular chrome isn’t garage ads.

      I watched a TV in a public space last week. The show was sped up and packed with ads. I watched more ads then show in 20 min.
