Netflix Inc. has seen a decline in user engagement, with customers opening the app less frequently than before. Although total watch time increased due to new subscribers, individual viewing has decreased significantly during this period. The company is facing challenges such as increased competition and fewer hit productions impacting viewer attraction. In response to these issues, Netflix has made leadership changes to strengthen its content strategy and overall business model.
But are users who are doing this unsubscribing? Because if they don’t, maybe that’s what Netflix is aiming for. I don’t pretend to understand the way of
con artistsexecutives.It’s not hard to get people to watch. Produce good shows with actual seasons (minimum 13 episodes, preferably somewhere around 20 for certain types of shows). Then let those shows run for multiple seasons to continue to build up a fan base, so you can start to make money on merchandising. Make sure to always film a proper ending and avoid cliff hangers for the series finale to increase rewatchability. In fifteen years, you can have multiple shows that have at least 5+ seasons/100+ episodes, greatly increasing variety and rewatchability.
I haven’t used Netflix in ages, but their UI was horrible. Considering trends for the past twenty years, I can’t imagine it got better. I’ll never forgive them for deleting the reviews. Often, the Netflix reviews were the best reviews (that was not universally true).
But inevitably, they will increase prices, add more ads, then start spamming those 5+ seasons/100+ episodes shows made fully from AI slop.
Netflix was good once. It all changed once the dropped the percent positive scores now my watchlist is full of content I bailed on after 15 min.
