They made some pretty big ad spending like x months ago, I can't remember, but that's the only value I have associated with "Quibi" in my brain. I think they paid some famous celebrities to endorse.

I heard about them one other time, on HN a few months ago. I didn’t bother checking them out because they were mobile only. Other than that, nothing. No one I know has mentioned them to me even in discussion of such services and the people I’ve asked haven’t had a clue they existed. Maybe their content sucks. Maybe their choices and interface are garbage. But surely their terrible marketing was also a nail in the coffin?

I literally watch people live stream on Twitch and Youtube all the time and this is the second time I've heard of them. I'd agree.

I heard of them because I like Reno 911 and the social media algorithms probably knew that too because I watch the show on Comedy Central sometimes, and so they advertised Quibi and their Reno 911 show to me all over the place about 5 months ago.

I signed up to watch it. It just wasn't the same as the good old show I used to watch, so I unsubscribed.

I flipped through page after page after page of their other content offerings and not a single other thing looked remotely interesting to me. I tried watching a couple just because, and I got bored fast.
