I usually choose not to watch.And not because of morals, but because the life is sad when so much effort goes into consuming content.

I usually just use yt-dlp for most things I want, how is one command a sad amount of effort? A ton of older cartoons I want to watch just sit on archive.org.
Then I will miss a big pile of content. Netflix is very limited in some regions.
You will miss a big pile of content anyway because even if you are in full consumption mode with full access to everything, no one has the time to see/read/listen/play even a fraction of what is published every given day. Given our rate of media production, the backlog of potential worthwile stuff you will miss out on is ever growing.
