matter of time before they put ads in the paid tier too.

subscriptions suck.

We're talking about a gaming streaming platform. How do you think that concept could ever work without a subscription?

And frankly, adds for the free users really isn't that outrageous or surprising either. I'm mostly surprised that this wasn't the case from the start.

I'm honestly surprised to learn they still offer a free tier, I'm not sure why? What advantage is letting users play for free?
