~~I'm guessing it impacted some people for there to be a Hacker News (a fairly respectable news outlet) article about it.~~ I was just listening earlier today and didn't have any ads. Same with my wife on her account (family plan).

Edit: wow, I'm a dumbass. Nevermind.

But yeah, I still haven't had any ads after listening all evening while cooking dinner and what kt.

Hacker news is not a news outlet. It is a forum/aggregator
