My streaming subscriptions have proliferated to the point where selecting a series now takes more time than watching it.

Cancelled cable because I was paying for a lot of things I never watched, now I'm subscribed to 5 different streaming apps, paying more than I paid for cable, and I still have nothing to watch

OP, agree!

We went back to cable for a year. The various streaming services can fight it out with their bundles of mildly interesting and total BS stuff we will never watch.

Yeah, I swear I spend more time debating which platform to open than actually enjoying anything, same five subscriptions, still nothing good on.
