Even if you don't find it intrusive, it is. Ads are incredibly powerful, that's why they pay good money to get them in front of you through any means possible.

Okay, but I'm not paying either and all I see every ~20 posts is a black box that literally just says "Sponsored Content"?

Is mine bugged or do the ads on the app kick in later, lol? Because right now it's awesome.

I've getting the same black box with "Sponsored Content".

I havent paid and haven't even seen anything but content so far. Not even the black boxes

A month from now you are going to look around and think to yourself, "damn, why did I buy so much of this sponsored content? I don't need this much sponsored content"
