    What’s all the hate for UG about? I’ve been using it for years, as a casual guitar player, to get tabs of songs I want to learn. Happy to pay $15 year for the service. I know they annoy you constantly to get premium if you are a free user but for the price, I don’t know of a better service for tabs.

      I got lifetime premium by buying the app for $1 when it first came out and they still annoy the shit out of me almost every time I open the app

        I wish. I was late to the party on that one. But in general, I pay way more than I should for a lifetime one time payment just to avoid a subscription. Can’t stand it.

      It’s not about UG specifically. It’s about websites forcing you to install their app instead of just being in the browser. Like how many apps do I have to install for every little thing? One just to order pizza, one to look up lyrics, Twitter app just to see one post, reddit app because you can’t comment from browser ofc. Like my phone is a dumpster fire already.

        I hear you. I just ordered pizza from a local pizzeria we like via their app. It’s one random hole in the wall pizzeria and I need their app to order a pie. In that regard, I completely agree. It’s out of control.
