> Even the shitty new "Max" interface is better than Netflix I have to disagree. I don't love the Netflix interface, but Max is truly terrible. It is egregiously slow and it's difficult to locate the things that I want. And when the thing I want happens to be highlighted at the top of the homepage, it's always a dumb "just play more of this" instead of a link to the show info page, which almost always plays the end credits of the last episode I watched, and it takes 60 seconds to load that, then another 60 seconds to start the correct episode when I find it. If I get a take-out burrito and sit down to watch TV and eat it, I always think to myself "I wonder if I can actually find and start a show before I finish my entire burrito," which is an exaggeration, but not by a lot. All the accumulated UI "wait for something to load" moments add up to minutes. Netflix, on the other hand, is almost always more or less instantaneous (2-3 seconds maximum per UI navigation, 5ish seconds to start streaming). |
