paying for Netflix incentivizes their bullshit

There's no legal way to watch their shows otherwise

[–] 6mementomori@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

why does it have to be legal anyway?

I pirate it but my parents don't want to deal with that and many of my friends don't want to deal with that or worry of being caught commiting a crime even though you will never be caught

[–] 6mementomori@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

that's reasonable, but pirating is even more

[–] Stez827@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree but it is more difficult and the 18+ ads that are on many pirating sites push people away instantly

This is the sad truth. I'll continue watching their shows on a family account as long as I can. The second that's gone, I'm done with their garbage.
