Nice try tubi marketing team
haha, i wish
Early 2023 they pushed so many ads at me.
southpark.cc.com is the only one that's going to stay in my house
no one stays. torrent everything.
I cannot describe how good it was when I first launched Stremio and discovered you could find virtually anything, from the extremely recent, still in cinemas, to old historical stuff. I just watched Furiosa, then rolled that into Fury Road, then went back and watched the original Mad Max franchise, all from the same interface. It was almost as easy as it would have been on a regular streaming service, and I never had any question in my mind that it would all be available.
The fact that Tubi exists basically applies clown makeup to all the other streaming services. Like, Tubi shows me ads as or less frequently as the payed services and I don’t need to make an account to use it. That’s a huge plus for me personally as I’m tired of account bloat.
It doesn’t have every show or movie ever but no streaming services does. Its original shows are totally uninteresting to me, but that’s also true of 95% of new original shows on other streaming services. I ain’t about to shell out 8 dollars a month and sit through 10 minutes of ads every hour just to watch a couple of prestige shows.
And there are plenty of options for watching everything, for free, without ads, assuming you’re willing to jump through a couple hoops.
How can installing software and downloading compatible file types be seen as jumping through hoops?
It’s not hard, it just takes time and attention to set up properly. And a lot of people are scared of messing it up.
Dropout subscription be like
Happy to pay for Dropout and Nebula. Everything else can, kindly, fuck off~
I have this relationship with HBO Max, but that's because I still get it free with my AT&T Fiber.
For me it's Crunchyroll
I dropped Crunchyroll after they told me to turn off my ad blocker after I been paying for months, it was around the same time they got caught pushing views with bad translations. They lived long enough to be the villain.
Ahh, shit. I haven't encountered that yet. I enjoy it while it lasts then 🫡
It was years ago, shortly after they started operating legitimately. I think the drama was they washed out yuri implications from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid and found other translations have been unfaithful enough to change plot elements.
Maybe it's because I am using U-Block Origins or because I am living in the EU but I just tried it and it didn't ask me to switch off anything :p
It was years ago, I just happen to hold a grudge like that for life.
Ahhh, it took me a while to understand basic English, my bad :')
Oh no. Is this a Pokémon donuts (onigiri) situation.
Pretty much.
Prime stays for hazbin season 1 and 2
See, this is kind of my opinion about streaming services, I ain’t gonna pay them anything unless they’re picking up independent projects I want supported.
I’m certainly not going to pay them for designed by corporate committee drivel that makes up 95% of original streaming content.
What the hell is tubi?
Also no ads using ublock. Minimal when not using one, and they let you know when they're coming.
Sounds like they are in the phase of trying to get their share of the market before enshittification ensues, watch it while it's hot!
I would say "don't say it or it will come true", but I don't believe in the saying, and we all know that's probably their plans already(what you said in your reply).
free streaming service owned by FOX (not the disney one, the one that was formed out of the assets that disney didnt buy) that has a bunch of stuff on there, a lot of obscure stuff but also cool stuff like classic doctor who and farscape and old shows like everybody hates chris. idk i just like that its free and at times more convenient than pirating because i already always use a vpn
in May it was the most watched streaming service in the US, beating even Disney plus.
I watched Babylon 5 on Tubi last year
When I'm looking for some obscure horror movie and can't find it, tubi usually pulls through. I enjoy it as well!
Their giallo selection is surprisingly robust
