It's got to be Amazon Prime Video, right? It's so bad that it's not watchable. I have high-speed internet. I never have a problem with Netflix or Disney+, but Amazon Prime Video keeps buffering and freezing. Which streaming service works the best and worst for you? Oh, and if you've had a great experience with Amazon Prime Video, then please share your trick.

If ads count in making a streaming experience bad, then YouTube. I'd hate it the most when I'd be following a workout, and then suddenly an ad would play. It makes the workout longer, man. I don't even know if I should pause or continue doing the exercise while an ad is playing.

If you'll use something to block ads, then you won't have to deal with the ads on YouTube. I never see them, so I assume that's why. I use Adblock Plus and uBlock Origin.

I've used the streaming aggregator Sling that my sister gave me their password for. It ain't nothin but frigging ads. Even YouTube ads are mild compared to it. I don't know if the adblocker's would work on this platform or not. But, I know I wouldn't pay for that joke of a streaming service.

I used to hate that. Don't you just cringe when you're watching something really interesting, only to be interrupted by some stupid and totally unrelated ad? I installed an ad block called uBlock Origin and never looked back. Best ad block ever!
