As a small example of this stupidity, I’ve enjoyed Apple Arcade. Every time I play a game I get a big Apple Arcade splash screen. Ok. Well now (possibly 27 beta “feature”) I now also get a little dynamic island pop-up at the same time, showing me icons for a couple other games I might like. On the service I’m already paying for. When I’m trying to play a game. You know when I’m not looking for another game to play? When I start one, I already have. I went to Apple 20+ years ago, partly because they weren’t doing this crud. Now I have no choice.
