- The decline in reputable advertisers on X has made the platform more reliant on less reputable ad buyers.

I’ve clicked a few “sources” from a dude I know on Facebook that constantly posts his crazy bullshit. Dick pill ads for days.
Meanwhile my Hulu ads are for Hers or Hims, I guess my VPN works
HIMS, HERS, and dating apps for days.
When in doubt bank on people not feeling they’re enough and lonely.
I recently got a fresh Hulu acct and it’s funny watching them try to figure out what I “am” while they just cycle through the dating app ads.
One commercial will be a christian dating app, the next will be a black dating app, the next will be a latino dating app, the next a farmers dating app. It’s hilarious and I’m not exaggerating at all. I’m sure if I started interacting with anything they’d start narrowing my demographics down but for now the algorithm seems to be trying a shotgun approach and it’s a little bit amusing.
