Netflix Recommendations Thread 3.0

Most people walk away from Netflix as a result of their crackdown on password sharing or because of the spiraling prices. I'll end up cancelling my subscription over something as petty as YouTube thumbnail brand guidelines. That'll teach 'em!

Whoever wrote/devised Decline and Fall is a genius. 9.5/10

Is there anyway around the new household password sharing policy?

I’d normally never do a workaround but I’m trying to control my expenses and I’m already on the premium to get Spatial Audio and multiple streams so my sister and her kids can watch it. And extra member only allows one device at a time.

Would it be possible to make my sister’s house the “household” and for me to Uber the extra member while still being the accounted owner? I can’t do a live chat with Netflix support until later

😬 😬

“ Guns don’t kill people, people kill people “

It isn’t social media that is the problem, it is the people using that is the problem.

Some of those platforms could have been useful but is the users that have corrupted it.

And I say this as a person with no social media accounts. (Unless boards.ie is social media? Is it?

We can’t lie to ourselves but we can lie to each other.

so we’ll tell each other it isn’t 🥸

Ah had no idea, I watched both episodes of the doc on netflix in one sitting good watch.

Ive had the payment request appear asking do I want to add a screen outside the home location. Thats it. I cancelled it and it hasnt come back since. I thought the password share block was going to be forced onto everyone sooner than this. Im on 4k sub.

Finishing One Day atm, really wouldn't be what I'd normally go for but it's superb. I thought 14 episodes might have been too much but it's a perfect length. Also does something that most streamed shows don't take advantage of, treats each episode like a chapter so makes each episodes an appropriate length rather than a forced 40 minutes for each point. Stranger Things did it in the last season but made the episodes far too long as a result. 🤣

How far away from your friend are you?

Im only 1 mile away from the main account holder. Maybe they arent bothering with people who can easily go to the main account location every 30 days...

Very glad to hear boards.ie isn’t the same as Twitter, etc. 😬

I though the tool and user comment as you call it.

as I understand it the meanness and vitriol by many (most?) people on social media is what they are really like inside but the anonymity and the fact that they can’t see the people they are being mean to gives them a chance to let it out where as they are too afraid to do it face to face.

no one, or at I’d imagine not many people, have ever use a gun to kill just becasue it was in their hand.

off topic I know

Netflix support are no help at all.

They are insisting the location can be changed on an AppleTV and with all similar devices. But there is no such option.

Then he began to chase his own tail saying the reason it doesn’t show the option is because is because the primary location was reset. When I pointed out how that made no sense he then claimed the option doesn’t show because the primary location hasn’t been set.

I’m baffled

And they use the IP address to determine where users are, I received emails in the past and one this evening about “new device using your account” and a location is provided but it has never been accurate usually saying it was in Cork or Dublin which is not where we are.

And that includes one time when when Netflix was used in a smartTV

I thought it started ok but had bits of storyline that went absolutely no where and by the end it was all a bit silly

Did you see the back story?

McAvoy was given a character history and that was it, he improvised the entire thing. I haven't seen it, but remember reviews saying that it didn't really hang together. Probably why some story strands didn't go anywhere

Mea Culpa from Tyler Perry really getting slated, supposedly very bad
