Serious brand safety issues. Our organic social and CS teams got dozens of screenshots of our ads next to awful content. Replies to our posts with hardcore antisemitism and adult spam remained up for days even when flagged

Not wanting your advertisements displayed right next to objectionable content is not 'virtue signalling' lol.

I loved Quibi's short form dramatic and comedic content.

Shape of Pasta is a cooking show about rare pasta types -- sometimes being made by only a single person in a village!

Run This City - A documentary about Jasiel Correia, the youngest mayor in Massachusetts who get's caught in numerous controversies.

Nightgowns follows Drag Queen Sasha Velour's Nightgowns tour, this program worked particularly well on the service.

There are a couple more shows that I live Dishmantled, Let's Roll, Singled Out.

If Quibi had more shows like the non-daily news shows I think I would have stayed longer, but Quibi's content is mostly daily news.

I think a true car share coop model works better than a private business that doesn't have roots in the city they are operating in.

When we reached out to Spotify about Siri and AirPlay 2 support on several occasions, they’ve told us they’re working on it, and we stand ready to help them where we can.
