So what you're saying is that since their ads are for the product I am using the free version of, I shouldn't get irritated about them?
You can feel however which way you want. But, comparing it to paid services isn't fair..
It is a paid service though?
In what world is it paid? I've used it for years and never gave them a dime. I decided to buy Nitro in the last year so that I can support the network. But, I was never held back from doing what I wanted to do because I didn't have nitro.
As someone who has hosted Team Speak servers. That shit isn't free.
If they're asking you to pay a subscription then they have a paid tier.
Having a paid tier and being a "paid service" aren't the same thing.
It seems like you don't maybe know what you're talking about. If the service is available for free but there is a paid tier (like Twitch) then that's still a paid tier. Just because it's not providing the exact same features for the payment means nothing.
