People are so mad at Netflix, they’re trolling it with an old Blockbuster tweet
For years, the number of Netflix subscribers has gone in just one direction. Plotted on a graph, it would be a line that stretches mostly up and to the right, as the streaming juggernaut -- partly on the strength of exclusive content like Ozark, The Crown, and Stranger Things -- acquired a global user base in the tens of millions that seemed to never stop growing.
And then, all of a sudden, it stopped growing.
Netflix's most recent earnings report was an unmitigated disaster for the company. Not only because the streamer reported its first decline in subscribers in more than a decade. But also because it's forecasting another subscriber loss next quarter -- an even bigger one, totaling more than 2 million.
Couple that with the streamer's password-sharing crackdown, its stunning reversal on the company's longstanding resistance to ads, increasing prevalence of stupid reality and game shows, and the cancellation of beloved titles, and it would seem to be a recipe for trouble.
