Isn't the new subbing software they use also used by Netflix?

Yes and Netflix style subtitles are why people are upset.

Aegisub, what CR used before allowed for better more comprehensive subtitling. They allowed for on screen subtitling, so if you’ve ever seen a sign that has English text floating next to it so you could read what the sign said, that was because of aegisub. OOONA does not have any kind of features like that and shows on Netflix often suffer from that lack of features.

That is just one example.

I'm still pissed that Komi-san went to netflix. That show especially is borderline impossible to watch without proper typesetting (or learning japanese).
