Sorry I took the cue from your post and thought dogshit low effort posting was what we were doing here.

No u.

Unless you’re on a vpn, in which case the whole site is restricted unless you sign in.

That does sound like a good system.

I know this only because I spent way too long trying to figure out why older games look like ass on the LG haha.

Depends on your tv a bit. 30fps is fine on my steam deck, but on my LG OLED the response rate is too damn fast and 30fps looks choppy and terrible.

I’m not surprised. The argument at the time was that they needed users to be inside their own app and anything less was unacceptable.

Gotta gobble up dem user metrics, I guess.

Solid argument. Go you.

I mean, you lead with “logging out is hard so I have no choice but to have a single user”. I countered with “it’s not hard, we do it just fine, here are mechanics that make it fairly easy”.

If you don’t understand that closing the tv app stops showing the tv app I’m not sure how to help you.

I have been using a single Apple TV in a multi-user home for many years, I think you’re overselling the difficulty here. Virtually every app will just ask you what user profile you want to use when the app opens; and when you’re done, closing the app is simple.

It’s far more obnoxious to need to browse every single app for their content rather than having a single unified watch list and closing an app when you’re done.

Apple provides a system for apps to expose their shows to the TV app; effectively every app other than Netflix uses that system but Netflix intentionally removed themselves from it.

Which effectively removed Netflix from my viewing habits because I use the TV app to manage all of my other apps/subscriptions, and because Netflix doesn’t show up I never consume their content. I still think it was a really stupid move on the part of Netflix.
