My family shares our Netflix account. We live in different states, but all in the United States.
I used it yesterday and it was fine. But today it was not. I got the “you are not part of this household” message, with the three options being:
- make your own account
- make this location the household location
- I’m traveling
I watch a lot of random stuff, but mostly on different services. So, while it’s kind of a bummer to uninstall Netflix, I have plenty of options. It’s moreso just depressing that the enshittification has finally hit North America. Will probably see more of this stuff around on the internet soon, as I’m guessing I just got my number pulled before most people (which is doubly depressing since this we’ve had Netflix since like 2005 or something and were strong advocates of it when linear tv was still dominant - THAT’S CAPITALISM FOR YA!~)
I canceled Netflix three years ago. There are plenty of other less expensive services with a higher hit to miss ratio for their originals.
Haven’t missed it a bit.
