    I should probably thank Netflix for helping me save money. Their shenanigans pissed me off enough that I’ve entirely withdrawn from all paid streaming - I have a media server and a VPN now. Total media cost, $70 /year or ~$5.83 /month. For that, I have:

    • Access to any movie or t.v. show any streaming service has ever provided
    • No ads
    • Shows/films don’t get removed from from the platform without warning.

    My entire family have paid a family plan for years. Once they changed the terms on that plan and want us all to purchase independent plans, we cancelled.

    Pirate streams of Netflix content load faster than they did on original Netflix now. 1 for us, 0 for Netflix.

    We were paying customers. I guess they don’t like money.
