        Different providers? Plex has hosted content and a handful of features that jellyfin doesn’t. Also some people have the lifetime Plex pass. Also also, it may be a hosted Plex/jellyfin server that OP doesn’t operate locally and hosts different content.

    They planned it this way. Netflix admitted it at the demo to ad sales execs. They deliberately priced streaming low and ran off investor funds because they new they’d get valuable information for ads since streaming is much more monitoring than broadcast.

    I cut the cord when netflix was just mail order CDs. The moment they started their bullshit with password sharing, I canceled my sub and never went back. Hulu got the axe too. If you live long enough, you either die a hero, or become the villain. Nextflix decided to become the villain.

    I mean… it’s entertainment. It’s not like they are offering some basic utilities. Buy it if you think it’s worth it, don’t buy it if you don’t. Plenty of cheap alternatives on TV or in a library. I really don’t remember Netflix of Apple promising to entertain everyone as cheaply as possible. They were always there to make money.

    I’m a Luddite

    I’m still absolutely unaware of what the “fediverse” is, or how lemmy works

    I took two months to figure out how to Chromecast to a TV when something changed and I couldn’t follow basic instructions from Google

    And yet, even I am able to easily find sites to watch the shit I want to that requires paying shitty 'Murican companies (mostly I enjoy SBS and ABC stuff, because I live in Australia and they have wonderful offerings for all who live here for free)

        I mean, it’s a perfectly functional free public tracker that can be thrown in with a handful of other free public trackers in prowlarr which when added together, cover about 98% of all my media needs. I don’t go to the pirate bay, but I would imagine my arr stack probably uses it from time to time.

            I think this is just a fact of life with a public piracy service.

    Used to have 1 service with damn near everything.

    Now there are 30 and none of them have much worth watching.

    Right back to “500 channels, and nothing’s on.”
