What the heck is a convenience fee?

Annoyed_Crabby ,

A convenient way to charge you for more

bodiesofeverest ,

But you can avoid our unreasonable fee by signing up for a monthly subscription!

BlackMagic ,

$15/year is pretty reasonable for the perks for AMC. Most theater chains are trying to charge monthly for membership which is outrageous

jscummy ,

Are there perks aside from just avoiding their extra fees? I remember last time I was at AMC they added a charge on at the snacks when I said I wasn’t a member

BlackMagic ,

They don’t add extra charges for not being a member for snacks. You get free upgrades and get a special line for concessions. So worth it if you get concessions normally ever, not if you don’t. I think they also have another tier up that gives you 3 movies/month but I have no idea what that costs.

jscummy ,

Maybe I’m confused. The cashier asked me, and then he put on a “delivery fee” or something

How old is he/she? Looks like an older version of my kitten!

Thank you for the kind greeting. I really am a refugee in more ways than just leaving Reddit.

Does anyone see the attatched mp4 video? If not here is an imgur link.

joroo ,

We can see the video. Like the idea! I personally use a pi that I plug in manually as a backup solution. Do you have a git with the scripts you used for this pi?

Ugh should have read “no sales to trump supporters or religious nutbags. Whoops those 2 are the same thing”

BestBouclettes , to mildlyinfuriating in The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore.

We have some cinemas around here that offer an unlimited option. For a set monthly fee, you can go to the cinema as much as you want. Obviously you have to pay for all the extras (3D, popcorn and stuff). I have one and I go to the movies like 3 times a month on average.

xXxDickBonerz69xXx ,

Yeah AMC the one in the picture has a plan where you get 3 movies a week for like $25/month

    “I think op is rage baiting here”. Yes, that’s the point of this sub. Its called mildlyinfuriating for a reason.

    Kallioapina , to mildlyinfuriating in The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore.
    @Kallioapina@lemmy.world avatar

    Same thing going on here in Finland. Movie tickets are often 20-25 € for “normal” movies, shit ton of ads to go through and rude customers scrolling Insta or talking through out the movie.

    sh1ggy ,

    Holy shit, 20-25€ is fucking bonkers. I pay 11€ for a 2D screening in an amazing cinema in Germany (big city).

    Kallioapina ,
    @Kallioapina@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah, it truly is. There are some local smaller and cheaper cinemas here and there, but they usually cant show new movies at all. They are rare, too. There are couple of big movie chains that dominate and effectively force an duopoly/triopoly with their prices.

    nothendev , to mildlyinfuriating in The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore.

    wtf is a “convenience fee”? please explain

    Danceswithbullets ,

    I believe AMC charges a convenience fee for purchasing tickets online. I don’t believe that fee is included if tickets are purchased at the kiosks.

    nothendev ,

    oh thanks. but the idea of having a fee for purchasing online is bs

    Danceswithbullets ,

    You’re not gonna hear any disagreements from me!

    Well, I mean let's be realistic. This is never going to kill reddit (though it might lower the content quality quite a bit). Don't underestimate how many people just don't care, who just want to scroll and read in their favorite subs. The people already using the official app. Those people aren't going anywhere.

    But I'm sort of very okay with that, to be honest. We don't need ALL reddit users to come here. I've noticed I like the quiet here. Comments won't get snowed over within 3 minute, people seem to be more polite and decent, commenting on posts older than a day is still 'viable.' These are all positives in my book.

    Guster ,

    I agree with you. However, I think most people like myself coming from reddit won’t stay here if there is a lack of content. So there need to be more users for this reason IMO

    Triumphant_Victor ,

    There’s a ton of people who don’t care. Like Mastodon exists, but Twitter is still chugging. Reddit’s communities are a bit more organized, but time will tell if it translates into transition. Niche subreddits seem to be continuing

    Oh wow, I’ve never seen that colouring before. What a cutie!

    Yes, me too. Mom was one color and dad was the other. I will post an update when hes grown up

    mato368 , to android in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

    Are there any good iOS apps coming?

    Haha ,

    I’m using wefwef and Memmy for now… wefwef is an Apollo clone

    mato368 ,

    Just installed wefwef and it's great! Really off putting name tbh but looks exactly like Apollo

    Haha ,

    Yeah there is no name that’s good but there is an entire marketing time behind Reddit… those are one men projects where marketing is def not their strength but it’s ok for now

    mato368 ,

    I already see a post from the dev on their community asking how to rename the app so I guess this feedback is coming from a lot of people. Currently "Voyager" is winning and that would be step in the right direction imo.

    Haha ,

    Ohh voyager is a neat name :)

    zephyreks , to worldnews in France’s protests over a police killing, briefly explained

    Why can’t other countries organize strikes like this? You’d think that this forms a core tenet of democracy

    It’s not a strike it’s a riot.
