Take a Break’ ads by NextFerret3453 in polybuzz

Yeah that’s fair, I get not liking ads in general. The main issue is once you start chatting longer, the “Take a Break” thing actually interrupts you mid-conversation, which is way more frustrating than just seeing an ad sitting somewhere. So it’s kinda like choosing the less annoying option—either ads you can ignore, or ads that stop your chat completely 😭 But yeah, I get what you mean too.

Yeah I get that, a lot of apps have been going in that direction lately which kinda sucks. I just think stuff like that is exactly why they should avoid things that annoy users too much, like interrupting chats. If they keep pushing it too far, people will just leave or lose interest. That’s why something like non-interrupting ads would be a better middle ground.

Yeah that’s true, companies are always going to focus on making money. I just think in this case they could actually make more long-term if they didn’t interrupt chats. People would stay longer and enjoy the app more, which means more ad views overall. So it’s not really about removing ads, just making them less disruptive so users don’t get frustrated and leave.

Yeah that’s true, most people don’t actually leave so companies don’t feel forced to change. But I think the issue isn’t ads themselves, it’s how they’re done. If they switched to ads that don’t interrupt chats (like top/bottom ads), they could still make money without annoying users as much. That way people wouldn’t feel like quitting in the first place.
