Yo ho yo ho.

I don’t understand how people paying for prime can stand that crappy prime video UI anyway.

  1. it’s basically fine and unoffensive ui to 99.9% of people
  2. people see it as functionally free because they bought prime for free delivery
  3. People don’t know how to pirate

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+

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

It’s slightly more convenient than sailing, considering it’s attached to my unlimited photo backup

Not to mention the shockingly bad picture quality.

The 4k stuff isn’t terrible, but anything that’s in HD is bloody awful.
