...and if he sleeps is a good thing!! May reduce the damages.

Maybe you are right, but the local content has been always without ads, and the generic description should be related to both, live TV and own files. It would be a non-sense to add ads to stream a local content that you can easily stream with any dlna server etc.

I think it could be a bug and I would report it. In the Pass description one of the function is the option to skip ads on local content https://www.plex.tv/plex-pass/#modal-plex-pass-features

I was just considering an HP printer as next. Sure it will be another brand who respect customer choice.

You may compare both as, is possible to share the same profile between the 2 apps. Actually I rely on Thunderbird, as I use it since the beginning, and it has the functions I need. Perhaps I will give a try on the Betterbird as well.

The problem is that OTT services are going to the adv model too. They expect that we pay a minimum subscription cost and watch advertising.....this is crazy

I see it's normal for me. If an account is inactive, the user perhaps has created another account or not using Google services anymore its money saving if we consider all personal data, ie 15 Gb per user, which are stored and maintained without reason.

I'm using Gmail but I have also some other accounts from internet providers and a electronic certified mail which can be used for official communication with institutions or companies in Italy. I have also a proton like service with another address... Everything controlled with FairMail which I recommend as excellent mail client. Basically there's no need to use one or the other but you may also use both depending of the type of message, I guess

I understand. In this case we should blame the streaming companies about it and if I need this function I have not much choice apart illegal download.

Thanks. It's interesting but I'm traveling a lot for business, and I need offline content. That's one of reasons to use Chromebook for me .

I agree, and of course the complain is for the Reddit API, not for Relay, which is a great app, and I if they will provide a Lemmy version of Relay I may use it too. What is non-sense in the Reddit API, is that Reddit should value users comments, the platform has value because of users interactions, posts, etc. so it totally a non-sense that user, should pay to participate on Reddit. I may just understand a free donation model, or even the personalized ads based on your interests.

I have used years ago different download platforms, years before Torrent, in the time of Napster, Emule etc. but so far the official streaming service provide a good offer, without wasting time. I don't think it worst the effort to download illegally ie comparing with price of Prime. I see now a tendency when the platform cost will increase and users should, in theory have 10 platforms, where i may understand the reason for people returning to illegal download. The streaming service companies should think carefully before increasing the price or creating new rules to share the cost.
