Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

not really
connect to vpn
go to preferred free streaming website
that would be true if Netflix actually made good content. right now you give netflix money for a few good shows and an overwhelming amount of slop (that's even more the case for disney+). if you want to support certain content you like just buy the bluray or go to the cinema
I dunno about you but for me sometimes websites don't want to stream. It is pretty darn easy, when it works, but so is Netflix, which works far more often, and does things like tap out halfway through a show extremely infrequently to never.
Also the former requires an internet connection. A better comparison for you to have used is not streaming but downloading. If you download entire seasons at a time, then you won't have connection issues watching it later. Though Netflix is legit great about that too, with one-click downloading of an entire season at once. So Netflix kinda wins there too, plus being far easier for someone who doesn't know what "self- hosting" even means to set up.
It really is great software.
About content though... yeah, it's really hit or miss. Which is somewhat complicated by all the hype around TV shows these days - who wants to watch Mandalorian? Game of Thrones? Star Trek shows? The actual good Marvel ones? None of that is on Netflix, but are they really "good" to begin with, or is that just what "they" want us all to be watching? Anyway, there's some fantastic stuff that is truly great that is available on Netflix. To name a few: The Magicians, The 100, The Babadook, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Sandman, yes and things that don't start with "The" also! Orange is the New Black, Ghost in the Shell, Midnight Mass, ... well, I'm sure there's more, probably đ.
Netflix is not for everyone. But it is good for some, or perhaps I should say some of the time. And for the rest there's always sailing. :-P
The download function is the only pro for Netflix (and that's only aviable for the limited amount of content Netflix has licensed). If I have buffer issues, I can just switch to another website.
There's also the ethical aspect. I don't want to support Hollywood in its current state. I won't give money to a company that accidentally and occasionally produces a good show while deliberately fucking up many big projects on a large scale because they don't care about making good content anymore, only money.
There is that to consider too, yeah...
