If a product needs to pay people to talk about it, it must not have organic buzz and popularity. Think VPNs sponsoring YouTubers, or those cheap wireless earbuds from a small brand. I wouldn't trust their quality.
- lrvick 1y agoExactly why I do not own any Apple or Google products or have any subscription services. Advertise to me products I can not actually own or control for myself and I hate you.
- anton-c 1y agoGenuinely wondering as I would love to say what you did in your first sentence: what devices do you use? Are the Asian built phones better, or do you use a smartphone at all?
- lrvick 1y agoNot carried a phone in 5 years. Smart or otherwise. When I am at a laptop or desktop I am online. When I am not, I am offline.
- Dylan16807 1y agoPersonally my guess for VPN, earbuds, food delivery is that the quality is fine but it costs an extra 50% to pay for the ads.
- anton-c 1y agoBut usually a few minutes of research reveals a better option. I'm guessing most won't so that's a success for advertising I suppose.
