  1. What's the best streaming device for your setup?

    Chromecast has been the best in my setup since 2022 and I see no reason to change it. It's cheap, my phone controls everything. The smart tv apps are just too slow for me. What's the best streaming device for your setup?
  2. Are you willing to pay for multiple streaming services?

    I tried it once and at the end of the month, I felt robbed. Half the apps are untouched, now I rotate them. Pay for one, complete it, then cancel it and sub for the next one.
  3. How do you deal with streaming fatigue?

    These days I just cancel everything and stay off the screen for like one week, no notifications, no trailers, nothing, when you come back fresh even normal series feels new again, forcing yourself to watch content is pure suffering. What do you think?
  4. What's your favorite streaming service, and what's the best show on it?

    Netflix is still on top of my TV even with all the nonsense lately. Though they still have some interesting series to binge. But we cannot also say that all the content is superb. What do you think?
  5. What's the best original content you've seen on a streaming platform?

    Last month, I stumbled on one random netflix documentary, I watch it till morning. I couldn't sleep as it was so interesting. Well shot, no unnecessary dragging and the story is tight, unlike some series that would intentionally create more seasons for money.
  6. Are Comedy Movies Struggling Because Humor Has Become Too Online?

    Comedy has changed, that’s all and it's because of the internet. The old comedies had simple jokes, now everything is niche. There are still funny stuff out there but you have to search harder. Laughter did not disappear, but the delivery changed.
  7. Are Movie Villains Becoming Too Sympathetic in Recent Films?

    I don't mind it. In real life, people are complicated. Showing why someone turned bad makes the story deeper. But balance is highly needed. So, we should not make crime look cool. Some villains still deserve zero sympathy.
  8. New Years 2025 Getting drunk New Year's Eve

    I still drink small but not too much. I like to remember how I entered the new year. Plus alcohol prices are crazy now. One bottle in my area is like $6. So, a calm celebration is enough for me.
  9. Do you share logins with family and friends?

    I used to share until netflix started warning. I got tired of “too many devices” message. Now it’s just me. If someone wants access they should pay as well.
  10. Is Titanic a good movie or is it overrated?

    Honestly, I think it deserves respect. For its time, it was crazy. I rewatched it recently and some parts dragged but the emotion still landed. The music alone is good. Some people just like calling old popular movies overrated. It's not flawless but it earned its place.
  11. Do You Have a Local Streaming Service in Your Country

    Yeah we do, and I actually use one at the moment. When the light is stable and data cooperates, it’s fine. 😂 The problem is the catalog. You would complete the interesting movies very fast as they are so few.
  12. Animal Kingdom What's your favorite animal ?

    It’s an elephant. It's calm and powerful. I saw one documentary and I was amazed. Their memory is strong and they are family-oriented. They don’t rush life, just steady kind of life. Their quiet strength beats the noisy ones any day.
  13. Which documentary has been most helpful to you?

    For me, it was a minimalism doc. watching people live with less makes sense. I started decluttering after. It's not extreme but it's helpful. Sometimes we stress ourselves with too much stuff. Clarity improves when space is clean.
  14. General Weekend plans – what are you looking forward to?

    I might see one friend if the rain allows it. So, it's nothing serious. Maybe watch a match and gist a little. The weekends don’t need too much pressure.
  15. General What do you spend your money most on?

    Food, full stop. Groceries almost finished all my money quietly. The price of rice, oil, Indomie, everything is up. You go to the market with other $200 and come back confused like what did I even bought.
