Well, I'm from inside EU and I know it (:

I would say it is known and while they are obliged in a way to do it, I don't believe any other streaming service is doing it in the scale that Netflix does

It is at least well known in France that tv channels ought to produce or broadcast a minimum percentage of french show.

It is so well known that it's common to automatically skip content from within the EU. It's usually low-quality fund-farming subpar filler stuff. The most notable exception are spanish films, and those from lesser-known EU countries. Anything from france and germany is almost by definition trash.

In other words: no different than almost all efforts of the EU to "regulate the market" instead of creating incentives.

My family is in the process of finding the best suitable and possible emigration target. Unfortunately this is common. The hardest problem are family ties and care of our parents :/

If your downvoting because of derailing the thread, I deserve it, go on. I'm just frustrated how the EU is, at least from the perspective of my bubble, losing almost every game it wants to play.

Hard disagre.

For me the European content has been the fun part and much more exciting than boring low effort shows like Chicago $THING.

The two last shows I actually enjoyed on Netflix were both french (a very secret service, and call my agent)

"Dix pour cent" is great.
