Chris (@chris_sucksmith) reported from East Cowes, EnglandOne bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

RoboJ1M (@RoboJ1M) reported from Portsmouth, England@Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

✨🔥ℝⓊ𝔰тץкภ𝒾𝔾ħ𝔱_ / Brick Ch4pel🔥✨ (@rustyknight_) reportedThere is a weird bug where save/load files from freeview perspective (i.e. the one that isn't the isometric top down view) causes double-prompts on saving/loading existing names

St.Grumpy (@swerve_dec) reportedOnly positive out of tonight is we were that **** on freeview so everyone has seen how bad we are, it is a good thing because now the hierarchy can't ignore that we may need to re-evaluate our transfer strategy #nffc

TB (@BUNF28) reported@connor_naismith @GMcGarrySport @MarkBirtles Crewe fan here, like a lot of our (small and very tinpot) fanbase I won’t bother travelling 20 minutes down the road for today’s game, because it isn’t a derby. Do I listen on freeview or will it be on DAB as we’re playing a big club?

Schemie Goblyn (@SchemieG) reported@_Leyanelle_ @DaveyTheTroll Stv player had a major habit of freezing randomly then utterly crashing comedically large parts of Dundee down by the Tay are served by the relay transmitter at Tay bridge on the fife side which has a significantly reduced freeview service compared to rest of Dundee

The Opinionater (@StoneAgeDodger) reported@leeburridge @panonse @premnsikka Freesat reception better than Freeview in many places all that we needs is a storm to roll over and old skool minecraft starts streaming then no signal.
-
Jonny (@MisterBeergut) reported@TheBasedMother You will soon have no choice. All electrical goods will be connected to wifi. This is one of the reasons they want to ditch Freeview, because it is not a two-way service; and it is not subscription.

Douglass_McFarnham (@douglassfarnham) reported@Steven59066 @BethUndressed They must have got taken down for showing ugly babes like tazmin_riley who simply don’t come close to the standards set by nice real babes like beth_bennett herself, which is totally unacceptable quality control for freeview itself,

Tom H (@TomHLon) reported@fin_lay24 @OldRoberts953 Nice article, Finlay! Incidentally, I can't help thinking there was more choice and variety when it was just "four boring old channels" than when freeview came along and it became all UK That's Great Drama Yesterday +1.
