    Fewer or lower quality productions also affect those of us who download the content.

      If that happens: Don’t watch shit and certainly don’t pay for shit.

      Even if nothing good is made for years, I guarantee there are millions of hours of undiscovered movie and series content for you to find in older releases. These companies are going to consolidate more and more, and will churn out sequels, spin offs, low effort movies, AI trash and easy cash-grabs. We need to not watch that shit and let these companies die. Pick the indie movies. Pick better quality older stuff. Wait for however long it takes for the industry to get over its unacceptable enshitification.

      Games have the same problem. It is your responsibility to not pay for this micro transaction hell.

        Yes, of course, but the meme gives the idea that by pirating it no longer matters if things continue more and more towards enshitification, I do care, I hope it doesn’t happen, it’s not like I can do anything to change it, but it does make me very sad that we continue walking in the wrong direction more and more

          I think ultimately that won’t be an issue in the long run. This is definitely a possibility, but there are other countries, other independent artists, and technological advances that allow (or will allow) creators to release good stories. I believe the people will find a way, somehow, even if things suck temporarily.

          Inevitable I’m afraid and quite far progressed in many industries. The sad part is that it doesnt even matter if we refuse their product. There are more than enough people willing to keep paying them billions.
