the first batch of fuckers dragged to the guillotines should be the “team” behind the MOST MEN OVER THE AGE OF FORTY #tv #ads campaign.

it’s not that they are pulling the same ageist trash they do with women.

it’s not even the fact the models ALL HAVE HAD VERY VISIBLE PLASTIC SURGERY, including those gawdawful cheek implants.

no.

it’s the fact every single "good looking" model have like 10 layers of makeup & light diffusers. heck they might be AI-generated.

they're selling body dysmorphia.

I discovered very annoying news on #Twitch last night. I was under the impression that if I ran pre-roll ads, it disabled mid-roll ads altogether but NO. You can’t disable mid-roll ads at all now :(

So my question is this. Which is LEAST annoying of the following options (which would you PREFER) for you personally:

My objective is to runas few ads as possible and/or have them be the least annoying as possible. Please help with this user research k thanks!

80%A pre-roll ad, and 30 seconds of ads every hour
20%NO pre-roll ad, but 3 mins of ads every hour

Interesting. I reported an ad to #Facebook the other day, as a scam. The ad was for a Starlink connection in South Africa where you pay for the device only, and never paid any monthly fees.

I reported it as a "scam" because a) Starlink isn't legal in South Africa, everybody knows that, and b) if it were, there's no way they would offer it for free.

Bet you can guess how Facebook responded to my report. ;-P #ads
