Fuck Amazon anyway, but I used to use it when I was mooching off a friend’s prime subscription and I gotta say, this is probably a bug not intentional. Whole interface was nothing but bugs.
Well there’s your problem… you logged onto Amazon
Just don’t subscribe, easy. We had enough with Amazon and USA.
AZ⤵️ Your money goes to pedos.
“Just let the AI handle it!”
And now they’ve lost 3 billion in revenue.
When Amazon started putting ads on prime, I immediately stopped watching prime forever.
Fuck em.
Ha ha! You pay to watch ads.
I didn’t have prime for the streaming and hardly used it. Until Christmas when I just wanted Christmas bullshit on in the background and prime decided to cut in mid sentence to run an obnoxiously loud ad. So that’s how we finally cancelled prime.
Also, paying to watch ads was how cable worked.
Amazon gives out free prime all the time.
I think I’ve had 2 one month free primes, and 1 free week of prime, so far this year. Of course I take it, and burden their servers by leaving shit streaming as often as I can, with absolutely no return on investment for them.
with absolutely no return on investment for them.
They show ads unless you pay for the super plus version of Prime. So by streaming they get ad revenue from the companies advertising even if you don’t watch the ads. The companies pay for the ads by increasing the price of what they sell- and they don’t sell only on Amazon but everywhere.
So when you buy a bag of chips at the local store, some of that money is going to Amazon because you had their streaming on.
I don’t recall ever seeing an add on prime videos.
Then again, I don’t dip my internet wick without protection, either.
Isn’t that doing more harm to the environment than you then? I appreciate the sentiment tho
No.
What is doing more harm to the environment is people paying for prime, and giving amazon the money to build more data centers, and to drain more drinking water supplies to cool them. 🙄
Prime bullshit.
There is no wrong time to cancel your Prime membership.
Why wait till tmr what you could do today
Your benefits continue until the end of what you have paid for anyway, or at least they do in the UK/EU.
Search amazon for “shoes, size 13”, you’ll get anything but shoes in a proper size
It is so frustrating how terrible their search is. It cannot be that hard to add boolean operators.
I haven’t used Amazon in such a long time but I figured they would have made it better with LLMs and stuff.
‘ave ye thought about finally joinin’ the crew ‘n settin’ sail?
Scuttlin’ the service be the only language they understand. In addition ye get wider choice o’ better quality movies 'n series.
Aye, matey.
Only subscription I need is for my VPN. An’ that’s just to keep Comcast from sendin’ me nasty emails when I plunder somthin’ they be the owner of.
Know of anyone looking for another crew member?
1337x is still working and seems to have most stuff and fitgirl for games. Though might need a VPN from time to time.
Don’t do this if you live in Germany. They actually monitor this stuff and you’re in deep doodoo if they catch you.
A VPN helps with that.
Don’t listen to this dude.
Do it instead elsewhere and download from there :)opsec

Gah?
translated form a pirate dialect
Have you thought about setting sail?
Canceling the service is the only language they understand.

The whole app is a mess.
- You can give something a thumbs down, and it will continue to suggest it under “We think you’ll like”.
- You can hide a series or a movie, and it will pop up again a day later in suggestions as if you didn’t do a damned thing.
The thumbs don’t matter to Bezos. Just like the rest of your opinions.
It’s all algorithms driving engagement and a thumbs down is engagement.
I’d expected him to care more whether i want to continue paying for his product though
Amazon prime is the Pandora of video streaming
Nah, its the Hydra of streaming.
You subscribe, thinking you’ve won, and you just have 9 other things pop up to have to subscribe to under prime to actually watch what you want to watch.
Gotta have subscriptions in your subscriptions, so you can subscribe while subscribing.
Same for netflix when I left.
I don’t have this problem with Stremio.
