GitHub reinstates Popcorn Time code

I used netflix, I liked their content (99% of what I watch are series, so I don’t care about movies). What made me finally cancel was their UX that they seem hellbent on making worse and worse.

1. No, I don’t want to get rewatch suggestions.

2. Yes, I’d like to have always the same thumbnail for the same show.

3. Yes, I’d like to tell you "Never show me this show again".

4. No, I don’t want any automatic screen movement.

A cherry on top would be having a toggle to only show me shows with English subs.

I have a Jellyfin server and access to most content I want, but I'm still paying for Netflix because:

1. The content is nicely organised;

2. There's a button for it on my TV remotes; and

3. The UX is way more accessible for the elderly members of my family.

Looks like you were more looking for a reason not to have to pay anymore. Point of netflix is to watch content, not the UX of the home page.

Looks like you prefer to incite people over contributing to any kind of intelligent discussion. But FWIW, I kinda need to use the netflix site to look for stuff to watch.
