Ya salty dog!

Meanwhile, I'm over here, keeping my money and watching whatever TF I want in higher def and no ads — for free. Fuck you, Amazon.

I would prefer this if they made the core shipping product (the only part I actually care about) cheaper. I've never liked their bundled approach. But it looks like they're just going to increase the cost of everything else instead.

They jacked up their prices and laid off their long time employees... Like me.

Except they're all pulling the same skeezy shit. Notice that Prime is legit one of the last ones to raise prices, they were waiting for the majority of the market before following suit since literally no one gets Prime just for Prime Video.

I might drop prime and I don't even watch anything on there, I find them at sea. You don't get to do ads and charge.

I got an LG C8 in 2017 because I thought Dolby Vision was gonna be awesome compared to HDR10, pretty much every Dolby Vision thing I've watched is too dark and anything white has that stupid yellowish tint to it.

I've had this conversation recently about why we even have prime. Their shipping has gotten worse, their video has gotten worse, their support has gotten worse(literally just closed the chat conversation so I'd have to start all over), half of their products are Chinese fakes.

Fuck Amazon

Same. They definitely were on the bubble and about to be cancelled. They had a few good years where video made up for the declining shipping service. Now there's no reason to pay.

What are you paying for? Shipping is the same without prime, and the video and music products suck. Replaced it with looking elsewhere for cheaper products, which I was already doing.

Btw, if you want a free trial of Shipt your Visa CC may have one. Search for "Shipt Visa trial" or something.

Hmm, does it even support Dolby vision?

I just setup the arrs with qbittorrent using Docker on my NAS with overseer. I already had a Plex server setup on an N100 pointed at my NAS but now it is more automated. I was fine with the occasional manual adding of stuff but with how awful all of the services are now I just created my own that works for me.

Enshittification

First, they make a service good for the customer even at a loss so customers don't want to go other places. ✅

Second, they use the information gathered from you to sell to companies to make money off you. In Amazon's case they are now so big they don't need to sell your info but they do it anyways. ✅

Third, they screw the companies and the users to make the money all for themselves. In Amazon's case they fuck sellers by making Amazon branded copies of best selling items to cut their third party stores out of business by putting their copies first in the search results.✅

Read Cory Doctorow's books about enshittification.(also read his fiction, Little Brother, for a great fast paced dystopian terrorist novel.

"pray we don't alter the deal further?"

I don't know about this specific case, but the word going around is enshitification.

The headline isn't clear, it's actually one fee; the ad tier doesn't have Dolby and the ad-free tier does.

damn bro, welcome to the club with the rest of us

Prime video? Did anyone actually pay for prime shipping to get the video subscription?

Disagree, prime has a lot of the more niche and interesting shows and movies. Tons of Indy films you can't find elsewhere like Coherence, a great movie I would never have seen if not for Prime suggesting it.

Had Prime for a decade, never even opened Prime Video

Usenet really is great for piracy, I'm so happy that I found out about it like a decade ago. So much better than torrents.
