I think their UX is intentionally user hostile to keep you from realizing there’s not much to watch. That and showing random trailers hoping you like one of them.

Oh God, the autoplay... That one "feature" did more than anything else to push me onto competing platforms.

Tell me about it. And there are some obnoxious ones. I’m browsing my library to pick something to watch late at night. Some horror trailer starts and scares the kids… great! Now I need to wait to pick a movie. Essentially movie watching time is spent just picking something.
