Quick PSA: Can we stop calling films “chick flicks” unless the films are literally about small baby chickens? Here’s why this phrase should absolutely be retired (thread):
Netflix hasn't had good content in years. I unsubscribed a couple years ago when I realized the (especially film) content library was getting slimmer and slimmer, and they were papering it over by changing their interface to list the same titles in dozens of different categories to make it look "fuller". Then they were constantly removing existing titles, so you could go back and find shit missing. Then they started producing their own content, which is mostly either puerile or insipid.
Don't miss it a bit. I maintain my own video library on filestore at home. Titles don't suddenly disappear from that, it's full of classics, and growing all the time.
