I recently heard someone say that a movie spin-off or continuation of a TV show never works. It works as a bit of nostalgia maybe, but it's usually a bad film. So, is it true? ...
Pretty much what it says on the tin, but for more context. My friends and I use Discord to play D&D and other TTRPGs. We also use it to send memes and just have conversations. We mostly do the chat, text, images, gifs, etc. But we also use the voice and video chat pretty regularly too. Screen share sometimes as well. So I'd ...
I'm a United fan and I fucking love this mad manager. Yes the things he talks about come in a bit of a grey area because of the regime he works for, but he is literally the only high profile person in football speaking out about this.
What has Netflix enshittified? Ad supported viewing is a completely different tier and arguably they have provided even more value by bundling in mobile games that are completely ad and micro transaction free. Price increases don't even count as enshittification.
It does if you inflate the price of the base tier, then add a new lower tier at the old price. With ads.
That's not enshittification that's a price increase. They're not obligated to keep the same price point forever.
Or if you have less content and charge more.
Not enshittification because that's literally how the industry works. Now imagine they have literally all the content, won't you be saying it's a MONOPOLY, KILL THEM ASAP?
Or if you stop making content with creatives having control and instead make it based on producer led content.
Not enshittification.
Or if you start changing up the cover art of different content and sprinkle it in different categories to give the appearance of more content.
Wow person learns how algorithms and categories work. What a revelation.
Or if you claim to be about freedom of speech and not judging content based on being offensive or controversial, but then fire workers that you feel are offensive or controversial.
Not enshittification.
Or if you start buying your competition with the intention of having less competition.
Didn't you just say above you wanted more content?
This is just people crying about something they don't like. If you don't want to use the service don't use it.
I never implied they're good, I implied it's not enshittification. There's a difference.
If they were value-added features, we could opt-out and pay the same (plus inflation) without them.
This doesn't even make sense because they were added to your account at no charge. That means they would actually have to decrease the price if you want to exclude them.
I saw It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World recently and the whole movie was like 1 hour too long at minimum, with 10 minutes to both start and end the movie. Funny, but way too long.
