Re:88% of Americans use a second screen while watching TV by snuxoll on Friday December 27, 2019 @02:42AM (#21889817)
My daughters only experience with linear television programming is in lobbies and my families houses for the holidays/visiting grandpa. It’s interesting to watch a generation grow up that literally doesn’t know what traditional TV looks like, and I’m fucking glad because it sucked.

Too bad new issues of content fragmentation are developing in its place - I’m at least thankful Apple is starting to tackle it with “channels” in the Apple TV app and hardware, I still have to juggle subscriptions but at least I have a consistent interface to all of them.

What do you mean, content fragmentation? You just search for what you want to watch on Telegram and pick your preferred resolution for your device and bandwidth. As an added bonus, there's usually better localization available, too!
