PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off - eviltoast

Wow, this is awful. Some people reported that these ads are also very petty and not necessarily related to the game, like apparently Elden Ring shows an ad for a licensed mousepad when you hover over the game now…

Edit: Playstation Product Manager says this is actually a new bug. I really doubt it but they do seem to be “fixing it”.

      As both a Linux professional and freedom loving enthusiast that hates corporate bullshit, you bet your black ass I am. The block button is also free.

        People like you are the reason I’m running Linux Mint on all of my PCs now, and I couldn’t be happier. Keep fighting the good fight!
