Learned the term recently and really enjoy it, subscription fatigue is the feeling we all have had now where we are just over how everything is subscription based.

Which one was the last straw or most annoying/frustrating to you?

Paramount +. I love Stat Trek, but I'm not paying for one service to watch 20 - 30 new eps a year of one franchise. Even more egregious is they were so slow rolling out in the UK, half their shows were spread across Netflix and Amazon already, if they pull them from there, I'm just torrenting.

Not to mention it's a paid subscription that still has commercials. Paramount+ has such little content it shouldn't cost money and it plays fucking commercials on everything. It's a travesty and is the perfect example of how we've reached endshitification in the streaming world. It's just cable with extra steps now. Hoist the Jolly Rodger.
