Are you using Overseerr too? I wonder how discovery would work in your case, if people believe they are already on Netflix.

Convenience and discoverability?
Netflix does those worse than a 3rd party “recommend me similar movies” or even just IMDb lists.
I guess if you think it recommending you “MegaShark vs. Giant Octopus Cat”… because you liked Jaws is helpful? I think personally it is not.

Is this a serious question? Why am I not buying DVDs on eBay?
At least ask why I'm not pirating it 24/7 when I already have an Android box connected to my TV w/ Kodi installed with 3rd party pirate extensions which gives me up-to-date lists of every show/movie available on Netflix/Hulu/Disney/etc (including their trending and genre based lists) with each show being a single click backed via 10 different HTTP pirate streaming servers they index...with the alternative of another app which let's me search any torrent movie ever and stream them on demand via my Fibre internet connection.
I use Netflix etc because
a) the recommendation algorithms are better than any 3rd party service like Reelgood hopes to be even with OSS plugins that track my torrents
b) I live with 3 "normal" people in my house who don't care to navigate the imperfect UI of my Kodi streaming/torrent apps no matter how many times I tell them it's better and has everything they need and more for "free"
I just went under the hood in Plex and changed all the app icons and names to Netflix and my dumb family has no clue still.
Just fool the normal people into a better UX.

>meant to enrich the people
>not to moralize to them
I feel the current crop of writers employed by Disney, Netflix, Amazon etc. cannot tell the difference between these two.
No they cannot. And I am not just speaking in abstract terms, in the 1960s and 1970s (and even before) many shows were made that had a moral core but did not moralize at the audience.
Shows like Star Trek, The Outer Limits, Twilight Zone, etc. which would question or discuss complex ideas without turning them into soap operas or basic dramas.
The only shows that I can think of like that now are Black Mirror or perhaps your odd HBO offering, but those are not shining examples, and often, even if they do discuss or engage with deeper concepts or ideas, it’s not handled in a way that allows for nuance. (Black Mirror is happy to be quite crass at moments, same with HBO and other “top-tier” shows.)

> I used to get YT premium from my sis's boyfriend, but they detected I'm not in the family household and they kicked me out.
I'm surprised you achieved that at all. Google accounts are locked down hardcore... As it should be
My gf wanted me to share my ChatGPT plus account but I signed up via Gmail and it was impossible.
All of these sites can easily lock it down but choose not to. We're probably living in the Golden era. Although I still think Netflix's multi location accounts are far more expensive than their utility. And I fully see Netflix as an essential service but spending $35CAD/m is a serious consideration when I already buy 4 streaming devices that will very likely result in $18/m max if I pull the trigger.
“ living in the Golden era.”
If you actually lived in a Golden Era entertainment would be free, quality, and meant to enrich the people instead of advertise and moralize to them.
I really don’t understand how a DVD collection is an “essential service” either. Or why you would effectively choose not to look at your watching statistics and then simply buy the media you watch the most.

Why not just buy what you like?

can you elaborate?
About what in particular?
It seems you’re making a https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_(mathematics) which isn’t dimensional in any nature. It’s like saying that hacker news is a “2d forum”…
Anyway ordering it more like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_set
Just seems natural to me. Information typically isn’t hierarchal outside of artificial structures.
Riiight
That is right. Is saying it in big words somehow more confusing for you?
Basically Jacobi identity would be about things like disambiguations on Wikipedia so again… are you just intimidated by words you don’t know or something? That makes me sad for you.
