This was a sad turning point for me. We used to have a single streaming platform with an awesome library, a granular review system, and user reviews. You could easily take a quick look to read other users thoughts on a film. Now I have to lookup metacritic / reviews myself, and the NF recommendation is based on whether I've said something is 'palatable enough to watch, isn't terrible, but I'd never watch it again' (thumbs up). I've taken to only thumbs upping stuff that I particularly like to see if that's any better. It all seems to be the same from an uninformed end user perspective.

I remember they stated the reviews would still be available in some form for export.

It's no longer the Netflix of old imo.
