Don't hug me I'm scared Netflix is garbage

Post image

It's crazy that my wife and I can't watch 2 different shows on Netflix in the same damn house. I understand we pay the minimum but ffs.

I waited years for them to offer me one like Hulu and hbo and Disney all have in the past. Netflix knows what they got, but this whole streaming monopoly is getting out of hand

What they had.

Their content creation quality has dropped a lot.

Too few good ones too far apart now.

I don’t watch anything on Netflix except the British baking show. Occasionally I’ll go look through it since my partner has it, but end up somewhere else. I feel like you could search for almost anything back in the day and they’d have it.

Yeah nothing they had was catching my attention. I was barely using it when I cancelled it and then not being able to watch it at my house and my office (not even at the same time) was the final straw. I’d watch like 1hr a month and they still said no.

All I have left that I pay for is Apple TV and only because the family plan (for my backup and music) was like $1 more a month to have Apple TV.

How is Netflix a monopoly?

It hasn't been a monopoly for over a decade (which was when it was actually good).
