yeah exactly. and hopefully being banned from making shows will motivate them to finally work on their terrible UIs. it’s so annoying that so many streaming services still lack basic functionality and have almost no customization options.

its so insane these companies are competing with each other over what’s on their service instead of how pleasant it is to use their service.

Yep. Because as long as the content is exclusive, the ui isn’t a selling point.
