I think the pricing scheme Netflix announced was somewhat reasonable (an additional $8/month per "remote" subscriber) for middle class America. And they implemented the ability to transfer your profile to a new account. Also, the new "lower" ad supported tier as an attractive option for others probably attracted some to stay even through the inflation/cost-of-living crisis.

That being said, I bet it's a short bump in monthly numbers, and Netflix subscriber numbers will revert back to slowing/decreasing.

The problem isn't Netflix itself, it's the whole industry (Hulu, MAX, Prime, Paramount+, Peacock, and on and on).
