Opinion: The iMore blog has gone way down hill

Seriously though what is this garbage? https://www.imore.com/get-amazing-flavor-lodge-cast-iron-sets-sale-prime-day

While we may not like it, these posts are not unexpected. It is Prime day, and Thrifter is a part of Mobile Nations. These posts are showing up on all the different forums under the mobile nations umbrella.

Ok, so the crock pot is actually over at John Legere's house for this #tmobile #SlowCookerSunday series.

Yes, you can connect your FitBit to it but only if you use the bright orange band. No, it won't count your calories, check your heart rate, take voice notes and it's not waterproof. (There's 4 articles in one sentence)

However, if you purchased it via Thrifter, then Big Brother already knows all about you. But I'm not as concerned with that as the chip your doctor implanted in your body during your last visit. Now the CIA, FBI, NSA, etc is watching your very step.

That is, unless you're walking around wearing a foil hat. Then you're 100% safe.

Unless you are allergic to aluminum.

I think the problem is that these kinds of garbage posts are expected. If I wanted thrifter posts I'd follow thrifter, it's not rocket science.

I have to say Android Central forums don’t get these ads, the blogs are of better quality and the forums more lively, upbeat etc (probably because there’s more to talk about).

But yeah, a lot of these blogs are becoming ads in disguise.

I finally did it and pulled the trigger and took iMore out of my feedly. Good bye I'll miss what you were 4-5 years ago but will not miss what you've become

There’s only so much the iMore blog can write about when their main focus are Apple devices and services. But I agree with you...I’m seeing way too many ads disguised as blogs for fast chargers, cases etc.
