While posting and commenting in this community, you must abide by the Lemmy.World Terms of Service: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

  1. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, or advocating violence will be removed.

  2. Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.

  3. Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed

  4. Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.

    Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. We ask that the users report any comment or post that violates the rules, and to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting.

things we tried:

  • jacking up prices
  • adding ads to paid services
  • canceling the better shows
  • not adding anything meaningful
  • making specifically terrible shows that are obviously terrible from the get go
  • making the algorithm noticeably worse to cover up for the worse output
  • platforming has-been comedians so they can cry about how they aren't platformed anymore on our platform in a distinctly unfunny and joke-free manner

We're out of ideas... maybe we should utilize AI?

No no, I'm sure if they get Dave Chapelle to talk about how much he hates transpeople and sees no parallels between the on-going struggles of the African American and literally ANY other Rights Movement, then I'll magically start giving a shit about what's on Netflix!

Tough break big N, maybe I'll check you out when Steel Ball Run finally gets animated.... Or not because I could probably get an uncensored version on a pirate streaming site as long as I use my VPN
