Max is not shorthand for HBO Max.

By getting rid of HBO content and adding a bunch of trash that each lowered the value I'd be willing to pay vs not existing, and replacing it with an app that looked identical but didn't work.

I canceled my subscription the same day after having it constantly for a couple years.
