That's it, that's enough. The 20% of Netflix content worth watching can easily be found elsewhere, matey.

What is enshittification?
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
The lifecycle of Big Internet
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

Arrrrgh mi hearty! ☠️
A "price update".
I got a price update coming for them. It's fucking zero.
I'd say I'd still the seven seas for it, but I can't think of any of their stuff I'd actually bother to nick...
They have some solid CW content like the Addams family on and similar. It's not good but it scratches an itch for 20-somethings being catty at each other.
I watched one episode of Wednesday and can only assume that whoever wrote it had never seen The Addams Family before. Genuinely awful. Felt like some Harry Potter knockoff they'd inexplicably turned into something the rights were cheap for...
Agree with your last sentence; I don’t think anything they have on offer at the moment is even worth pirating - at least until the final season of Stranger Things is released!
I used to pirate movies like the dirty pirate that I was. Now I'm training my own personal LLM for educational purpose, just like Zuck.
Streamio with the torrentio addon for the win.
Dumb question... But what's the rest of it?
Is it .io or?
I assume these are for torrents but I can't find them.
My man. Thank you
Glad i could help! It's been a godsend since someone here told me about it too
Pc phone and tablet works great. I've heard mention of a smart tv version but i don't have experience with that
Be sure to leave it open for a while so you can seed some.
Netflix can go suck a fuck!!
Along with every corporation and wealth hoarder wringing every last penny from us.
Did you just say "suck. a. fuck!?"
I have nearly the same thread with disney+. Price hiked from 89 to 139/year. I like it but not that much.
I jumped ship (lol) a year ago. Synology NAS w/ 16TB of space, Jellyfin, and Proton. Set up my family with Jellyfin on their Roku TV's. I was paying for Prime & D+. My brother provided Netflix. Lost that first. Now we're all watching what we want, when we want, and I gladly cover the cost for everyone.
We're not much for live sports, so no loss to speak of
Great minds (and evil parasites) think alike it seems lol.
Good. I hope this makes everyone more politically thoughtful and active
I hope so too. The fate of the free world depends on it, but it's not looking very good.
