I sail the seas because it’s far more convenient than paying for shitty services. No sign ups, no logins, no figuring out where this show or that one is stationed, no emails, no bullshit.
I've been paying for Prime Video and Netflix and watch them through a HTPC hooked up to my TV with a user agent switcher extension in Firefox to trick the sites into thinking I'm on ChromeOS, so I can get somewhat near 720 or 1080p.. Just started sailing the seas, and seeing content in 4K, was jaw dropping. I've known the difference, but I just forgot because I will never be served 4K, much less 1080p as long as I'm on Linux.
Also I could see what the fuck was happening in dark scenes like horror movies because it didn't have Netflix's shitty data compression showing me large moving grey blocks as the background of a horror movie.
