That sounds like the worst way to consume Netflix context.
Everything must now turn into tiktok because turning everything into twitter didnt work
Thanks, I hate it.
No one will use that.
How the mighty have fallen. I used to think I could not live without Netflix, but now I have been cancelled for years and I keep thanking myself for that decision when I read news like this.
Buy Blu-Rays and DVDs again. Own your media and don't give these sole suckers another dime of your money
Another example of ruining the platform for paying users in exchange for supporting advertisers.
Every app must be like every other app.
Coming soon: Netflix DMs, Netflix Stories, Netflix Podcasts, Netflix Music, Netflix Shop, Netflix Food Ordering...
Lol
The fuck do they expect?
I scroll through Netflix stuff all the time to try and find something to watch and can't find fuck all that's worth my time.
I've probably spent more time scrolling through the catalogue than watching actual content.
(Pirated, I'm not actually paying Netflix for the privilege)
