My Prime membership is up in March. I've already decided to not renew it, since they decided to cancel The Peripheral. Had I not already made that decision, this change would have made it for me anyway.

And this is how I found out The Peripheral was cancelled ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Stay strong

Yeah wtf. I was looking forward to season 2

I also cancelled, mainly because "prime" shipping is meaningless now. But the addition of ads is the cherry on top.
