I saw today new “merch” section below comments. I’m a premium users for a reason, I want 0 ads.

I just canceled my subscription and moved to yattee / invidious for good.

    If you don’t sub to gamersnexus but look in the description and see the first line is their shop link.
    Is it then an ad?

      Advertisement:

      "a notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy. "

      I’m not sure if a link can be considered an announcement, but otherwise based on the definition I would say it’s a gray area and could be argued either way.

      Although I would tend to say it isn’t an advertisement but a link to one.
