Pirating was annoying and I was happy to sign up for streaming services, but I just canceled my Hulu due to the price increases. Fortunately I haven't been kicked off my parents' Netflix yet haha. Not that there are any good shows on there anymore.

Why is pirating annoying?

More work than just opening your app. At least as long as you need just that single app. The ease of streaming disappears quickly when you need 4 different apps need to keep track of which show is where.

I don’t follow. Why is going to Netflix more cumbersome than going to SFlix?

Netflix is easy. Netflix+Disney+Amazon+more is cumbersome.

This nails the streaming value proposition, it has to be cheap enough and less annoying than pirating.
Since your parents are paying for your netflix you have a tilted/unbalanced view of the 'cost' to you of piracy.
