What are you surprised that people pay for, when there are free alternatives in existence? (kbin.melroy.org)

I was going through my Wal-Mart+ subscription plan that I got for free and I saw their offers. One of which was EMeals, that was a 60-day trial. I thought that this was like Blue Apron or other meal delivery services so I thought I'd take a crack at it and hope that it would get me on a path to eat better.

Turns out, it's just a meal planner. And it's absurd to me why and how would anyone pay for something when there are countless and countless recipes and meal planners readily available for free. Who'd the fuck would want to pay for a planner? That's like paying for a calendar app.

Doesn't work if you're using a smart TV or console to view it.

Just solved this problem actually. Smart tube app. Download on your tv with a browser and sideload the apk. Dunno about console but I'm sure there's some solution.

Yeah, not watching it on console. /s

Seconded on Smart Tube TV. Frankly, it works better than ublock on Firefox most days as YT doesn't go out of its way to slow it down.

Also, I feel like it's more lightweight too. The regular YT app was lagging a lot, Smart Tube TV was running great.
