My facebook feed is the same way. Its based on browsing history and whatnot. Personally, I've leaned into it for the twin reasons of its stuff I'll never buy and I prefer being reminded that its shameful that I'm still using facebook at all. Apparently I'm addicted to daily blocking a new dozen or so people, pages, groups that I've never friended, followed or joined. That said:
$4 is plenty fair in my world.
Yes. I'm sure damn near every user of this app spends at least that much on something like: coffee, snack, etc...
Does the Play store not do regional pricing?
No clue.
I don't think the developer has any control over the ads. Google selects those?
Best you can do is to report those ads to Google, or get rid of them by buying premium / blocking them with pihole or a DNS blocker
reporting ads does fuck all. i once reported one ad multiple times and google's only reaction was the usual "we didn't find that this ad violates TOS".
the ad was for that one shitty mobile game and it started with a character stepping on a sharp object and bleeding heavily out of their foot like bruh. i wouldn't mind it that much if i didn't see it every 5 minutes, seeing serious bodily injury is just not something i want to be exposed to on a recurring basis
ads?
