I literally haven't had a Netflix sub since that year and I sometimes miss the convenience of it even. Haven't been very frequent on reddit in 2 years. Neither company is going to miss me though.

Soon it'll just be piracy and the fediverse for me, and maybe I'll be able to show my daughter how to download movies and shows, but I'm sure within within her lifetime, piracy will just become so unpopular that all the good sources of content die out. I do hope the fediverse will stay around though. It has a similar problem to piracy: It's not that it's hard, it's more that the people making everything work get tired and it's hard to convert people.
