Do I see a bias? One specific music service (podcast subscription) promoted for the podcast, as though there are no others? Oh, then a phone from the same company and no other?
Probably just my imagination. -
Probably. Can you explain what you're imagining better, or preferably, what would you like that you're not seeing?

Damn I saw the Netflix tile and thought Netflix was finally getting a good update. Sigh net neutrality is important too
-
Same here lol.

Lol I wish they would put out an update, maybe to pin shows to start and maybe a UI change

Please stop pumping net neutrality. This is the second article in a week. If I want to read political bias articles I'll go to any news outlets website.
