Netflix has become an advertisement platform for certain companies/ideologies/people rather than a media streaming platform.
Which is a problem because it has no like/comment functionality that can (theoretically) filter false/exaggerated advertisement.
On the other hand, which media platform is actually not an advertisement platform? That's a whole another debate.
- slownews45 5y agoNetflix is a business. If you think they should be supporting your ideology dream on. They are making good money right now. Netflix earned a net profit of $1,353 million in the second quarter of 2021, which is an 88% improvement over the result a year earlier. Market cap is going to be > $200B. When the tides of user preference change - they will change with them.
- devfromanatolia 5y agoI am not looking for a platform to support my ideology, in fact I do not possess any ideology. I am not talking about Netflix being a successful business either. Being profit driven does not justify false behavior.

- devfromanatolia 5y agoCan you please tell me which ideology does criticizing the UI choices or the content strategy of a web streaming platforms belong to?
