I don't see the outrage. This looks pretty similar to the design of every streaming service these days? Netflix, Prime, etc. The top bar is the largest and displays the newest/trending things to watch.
The only difference is what they might display on the top bar. On Netflix they just show you the newest/trending stuff regardless of I'm interested in it based on my viewing habits. Netflix really wants me to watch Tiger King. So if these streaming services were smart they would pay Google for this ad space based on my viewing habits, or it'll be the newest/trending stuff from these services and it's basically the same/useless then.
- radus 6y agoI paid good money for a Nvidia Shield in part because I liked the simple interface. Would you like it if in the next Android update you had "trending stuff" occupying a third of your smartphone home screen? I wouldn't mind it if it were optional, but it seems that it will not be.
- panpanna 6y agoI agree this is shity design, but is it "ads"?? To be clear: I don't like been forced "recommendations" that some AI algorithm digged up for me. But this is still far far from the consumer product ads you see will on traditional TVs.
