Watching my elderly parents and those around them interact with modern technology I really understand her frustration.
Technology everywhere comes with shitloads of user-hostile patterns and defaults, tons of assumed context, and the inevitable replacement will work completely differently. In the case of streaming services we can't even vote with our wallets because it's HBO's own content.
