Whats the ad situation on app store, do they aggressively push stuff into your throats there as well?

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 51 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Not at all from my experience. The App Store generally looks cleaner and more organised.

I hope for your sake that they at least stick to that. The google approach seems to be that they are too big to fail and that they can keep doing what they want, and what they want, apparently is more space for ads!

They just recently (like in the past few weeks) added an ad slot in the ios app store that I actively hate, but it's the first one that's just there (and not in search). Just wait though. Soon the app store will look exactly like this shot of the play store.
