I phased it out quickly last year by cancelling.
Me too.
I’m sure there was stuff that I’d enjoy, but finding it was near impossible.
At the end of the occasional thing I’d watch to the end, an irrelevant ad for something else jumps up. Kin annoying.
What a perfect example of enshittification.
and so I return to the high seas..
Oh man, i was really early into using netflix, i had to use a vpn for the first year or so because it wasn't available where i live. Back then i thought this is gonna be a steam situation where i stop pirating stuff for good. How innocently stupid i was
i sincerely hope netflix will crash and burn.
They got their money by being cheaper and easier than piracy. They have relinquished that.
Y'all gonna need to pay some more peasants
Well, looks like I'll have to speed run Brooklyn 99.
I've been meaning to cancel but i don't want to leave my wife empty handed. I barely watch anything on netflix myself and didn't have an issue with €8 up until €11, but now it's beyond what i'm willing to pay.
I imagine that’s quite a common situation.

It can all be automated with Sonarr and Radarr
Stremio is a great app for those of you who need an alternative to streaming services
I finally was able to convince the wife to drop hulu live tv and just get a full year of hulu and also Netflix with the ads as an alternative. Can anyone comment on how bad the ads are?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
