I haven't been around here in forever, but back in the day, I was a big DirecTV advocate. Then they were bought out by AT&T and it all started going downhill. Then they were divested and it got a tiny bit better, but not really. And then they lost Sunday Ticket, and that was the final nail in the coffin. I cancelled DirecTV.
Not sure if any old-timers will remember me or not, but I figured I should login and share because, well, why not.
For anyone interested, I basically cut the cord a couple of years ago, and have been keeping DirecTV purely for Sunday Ticket, suspending the account in the offseason. I use my own home Plex server and OTA Antenna to save shows, plus some streaming services to fill the gaps. Here's the article I wrote on the topic:

RIP, DirecTV, it was a fun 24+ years...!
