Bought a used TV antenna for $30 and now I watch OTA shows like it's 1995

Picked up a cheap indoor antenna off Facebook Marketplace and suddenly I'm catching old sitcoms and local news without paying for cable. Anyone else ditch streaming for free broadcast stuff?

Grabbed a $20 flat antenna from Walmart a few months back and honestly it's the best decision I've ever made for TV. The picture quality is actually better than cable because it's not compressed to hell and back. I get like 40 channels now including all the major networks and some random retro channels that play old Twilight Zone episodes at 2am. My monthly bill went from like $120 to literally zero which is insane. Plus I don't have to deal with buffering or random app updates breaking everything.

Do you live in a city or somewhere with good reception, @max_ramirez48? I tried one of those antennas out in the suburbs and only got four fuzzy channels, so it really depends on your location.
