    I have this theory that the streaming platforms hire UI and UX researchers to design their apps and websites in a way that makes it as hard as possible to find the good content you actually want to watch. An hour spent scrolling their app is an hour of 4K content they didn’t need to stream.

      Search something on the YouTube TV app and it tops out at like 20 results without even a filter for age…

      That’s just insane considering how much is YouTube, they definitely make decisions to limit how much people will watch.
