Personally when I want to get up, chat with my viewing partners or reevaluate whether I want to be in front of a screen I just do those things. No ad break required.
It is bizarre to me that having advertising brought into ones home could ever be seen as relaxing and human. It strikes me as completely the opposite in fact.
- basil-rash 2y agoIf I’m sitting down to watch something with someone, it’s because we’ve decided to allocate that particular time to watching that particular thing. The idea that I’d talk over the content and cause both of us to miss what’s going on in the thing we specifically wanted to watch is what’s bizzare to me.
- MeImCounting 2y agoWhy would you talk over the content when you could just pause it? Ooooh right its broadcast television, I always forget the pause button is a recent invention. I tease in good faith, if you like the commercial breaks more power to you. I am glad solutions like Pi-hole and browser based adblockers exist for my own use. I personally will never willingly watch an ad on a device I own and definitely not in my own home.
