I’m deep into the seven seas but I still use prime because a family member pays for it. Its a decent enough ui and has some live stuff I can throw on to keep kids entertained. However, I’ve already added the shows I watch on prime to my jellyfin server just because this change is going to make me not want to use it anymore.
Netflix’s demand to auto-play a trailer/song on every tile make any tv freeze or crash nearly every time I use the Netflix app on it. It’s gotten to the point I’m about to just cancel netflix because I can’t watch it
The player interface is excellent. Being able to see who the actors are in each scene is one of my favorite UI features.
I agree that finding a thing you want to watch is meh at best. Especially because they mix in rentals, purchasable content, and prime content all in the home interface window.
They also have a ton of subtitles and audio options. Like a shit ton.
Meanwhile Netflix most times doesn’t even have subtitles in one or more of the official languages where I live. And for sure they could have more, considering where they operate, they just choose not to.
However prime UI sucks for splitting shows between seasons so they get recommended multiple times. It just makes no sense
When I still was paying for prime (cancelled it last price increase) I was pirating any prime videos as that was easier than dealing with the shitty prime video UI.
I originally started paying for prime for the free shipping. Prime video is a perk as far as I’m concerned. I haven’t re-evaluated it in a long time though to see if it’s worth it. I do order a ton of stuff on amazon since I live 160km from the nearest city.
Yo ho yo ho.
I don’t understand how people paying for prime can stand that crappy prime video UI anyway.

Yep. I don’t consider it as a valuable streaming platform. If they removed it from the general prime I would not buy it separately.
Still a better UI than Disney+ too
I didn’t realize just how good the Netflix UI was until using Paramount+

Thanks! Helpful for me, I’m really not into trailers blasting from my speakers when I browse (on my 360 lol).
No problem; glad to be of assistance. :-)
Oh that’s great thank you!
Welcome!
Happy new year!

That said, yo ho matey.
Yes, X-ray is a fantastic feature. I have to give them that. The rest of it is trash.

Not to mention the shockingly bad picture quality.
The 4k stuff isn’t terrible, but anything that’s in HD is bloody awful.

It’s slightly more convenient than sailing, considering it’s attached to my unlimited photo backup
I hit the high seas when they wouldn’t let me watch the shit i paid for in high def. Fuck that.
