yeah okay well your watchparties are increasingly going to get worse until you too hit your threshold: such is the business.
the rest of the world uses a VPN like MullvadVPN and qBittorrent to "digitally back up media we've already bought". without ads, in better quality, without telemetry, without serfdom-subscriptions. you may like AI offloading your decisionmaking, but keep doing it and you will be codependent on authority for choosing anything in life. what do you want in a cozy moment away from work? it frustrates me to read people are too anxioys to begin to do otherwise and accept the way things are. that's a rant in return
have a nice day, i won't make this into a chain of replies.
My watch parties already basically dried up. The movie industry is crumbling in front of us for not being able to adapt to what their audience actually wants, and I end up just spending my time in other ways, because they're offering me poor value and too much friction (VPNs and torrents) to get what I want, and that's what my rant is. They'll adapt or die. Right now, it's looking like the movie industry will die. You're making a lot of assumptions there about offloading my decision making to AI though...
People still have watchparties?
Some friends and I got together and watched Weapons for Halloween (on a friend's jellyfin server) and we had a great time
