Just after reading this article I realised I haven’t seen a show on Netflix in weeks…

There’s too much choice and their recommendation algo seems quite off. I hope they find a wag to focus on the popular shows and invest in them!

The thing about streaming services is that they are incentivized to not stream content to you, but to have you pay the subscription fee every month.

They are incentivized to maximize 1) paying subscribers who 2) actually watch as little as possible.
