    1. „In November, Tubi made up 2.1% of total streaming minutes on The Gauge, Nielsen’s monthly analysis of viewing trends, ahead of NBCUniversal’s Peacock and Warner Bros. Discovery’s HBO Max. Google’s YouTube holds the top spot in the viewership tracker.

      Tubi said it has more than 100 million monthly active users and 1 billion hours of streamed content per month. For comparison, Netflix reported more than 300 million subscribers as of late 2024, the last time it reported the metric, while Disney+ reported 131 million subscribers as of the end of September.

      Nearly 60% of Tubi’s audience is made up of millennials or members of Generation Z, and nearly half are multicultural, Tubi said, citing an MRI-Simmons Cord Evolution Study of its audience.“

    2. I hate ads, but at least Tubi is honest about it. The other streamers charge me monthly and still show me ads, but Tubi respects the “free with ads” social contract. Also, there’s all kinds of weird and unique (usually bad, but sometimes decent, and always fun) shit on Tubi that you can’t get elsewhere.

    3. I like Tubi (and tolerate the ads) because they rotate out decent movies every weekend. Netflix and others seem to just have the same stuff week after week and make a huge deal out of it when something good does show up.

      It’s a platform that is only suffering from very early stage enshitifaction, vs the rest that are in moderate to excessive stage enshtiifcation.

      I’ve been watching Italian gallo movies on Tubi, and old Hammer horror movies.

      I am conflicted that it’s owned by Fox but since they don’t own a paid streaming service they shouldn’t have a financial reason to ruin it.

      Yo I canceled all my shit and pretty much only watch Tubi. Best decision.

    8. Tubi is fair with the ads. Most of the time, I get 1 or 2 30 second ad breaks for a 30 to 45 minute show or 4 or 5 ads for a movie

    9. „Here’s how it’s winning“ it’s free with limited ads. That’s how it’s winning.

      Netflix and other popular streaming services charge you AND give you ads. YouTube TV is cable.

      It’s not a hard concept.

      If I had a nickel every time I was told there was a new streaming service that was going to beat the big ones, I’d have around ten dollars.

    11. I never heard about it before, so I wanted to check it out. Apparently it’s not available in my area.

      Every now and then I start it up again for some movie / show but then I realize that I detest ads more than anything else in the world.

      It’s user friendly, fair and actually gives you new content to explore weekly. It also is where every show you used to watch but can’t find is located. Also the bad movie selection on there is extraordinary.

      It helps that there’s such a crazy wide catalog. This week alone I’ve watched the Drew Carey Show, Aguirre: Wrath of God, and Joe Strummer: The Future is Unwritten. The music doc section is crazy good.

      Horror is my thing and Tubi is loaded with all sorts of great b-rated horror which I love. There are some real stinkers too but it makes for great background noise at the very least. Use it every day.

      Nothing against Tubi but every time I hear its name I think of this meme.

      “Have you seen the new show? It’s on Tubu. It’s literally on Heebee. It’s on Poodee with ads. It’s literally on Dippy. You can probably find it on Weeno. Dude it’s on Gumpy. It’s a Pheebo original. It’s on Poob. You can watch it on Poob. You can go to Poob and watch it. Log onto Poob right now. Go to Poob. Dive into Poob. You can Poob it. It’s on Poob. Poob has it for you. Poob has it for you.”

      There’s a tubi addiction here in Detroit. It’s like homemade urban cinema with a few *interesting* flicks.

    18. They have a lot of niche things as well as a handful of hits in their catalog and I’m okay with watching some ads if the service is free. Meanwhile, prime video had like 6 midrolls on a single episode of fallout, with some of them being two minutes. For a paid plan.

    19. Left cable tv after 30 years with Comcast.

      Finding the streaming services are warehouses for old content.

      Most of the “original “ content is weak at best, cheap production, mediocre performances, nothing new and great.

      Movies, Tv and music today show we’ve run out of new ideas.

      Loved music and movies throughout my life, if growing up now I’d have zero interest.

      We’ve learned to live with mediocre.

      Just an old guy’s opinion.

    20. The app is pretty snappy. There is a bunch of categories, making discoverability easy. Up/down voting is single click (I’ll never understand why Hulu made that four clicks). All that AND it has a good library (plus trash, but you can just ignore that).

    21. Tubi and Pluto TV are good services.

      A lot of obscure titles to choose from too. I have a soft spot for 80s TV movies and they have a great selection.

      The ads aren’t egregious either, though I am salty about them fixing the skip ad glitch.
