We made the mistake of expecting Amazon to continue improving their Prime Video selection and Alexa smart home device dominance, and they've completely nose dived since around Bezos' departure. Once we realized the devices were only useful to us as Spotify speakers or making announcements, and, Prime video selection was becoming infested with ads or ad infused content (Freevee); we Sold all the devices and cancelled our Prime subscription.
Cutting the cable originally meant decoupling from wasting time on nonstop marketing BS, but here we are again. I guess it was inevitable and great while it lasted, but time to cut the cable version 2. New smart home and streaming setup is independent and flexible, no more investing in anything linked to Amazon, Apple, or similar.
