I remember when it was just Hulu for $5 and Netflix for $8. Saved $50 a month from cable. Now it seems we spend more. I have four. Max, Peacock, Paramount and Hulu. Prime doesn’t count because it sucks balls. (Only paying Netflix when next Stranger Things and Squid Game is released). Curious to see what the average Lemmer/Lemming (what do we call ourselves?) has?

Prime because it’s bundled with free shipping, I can’t remember the last time I opened up the app though.
I recently dropped Disney+ because I wasn’t watching enough to warrant the money. I’m burned out on Marvel and Star Wars.
A video platform for a very specific niche sport that is tough to find in the US. I keep the $5/month subscription year round, even out of season, because I actively want this group to succeed.
None, I refuse to sign up for any subscription, unless it can be done through gift cards, so I know that I will only spend a static ammount of money when I can afford it.

Netflix and Google Music. YouTube is included in Google music.
We have Prime, but the streaming is kind of secondary to the shipping.
One. Not so much of a “service” rather than a “technology” or “protocol” ;)
None. NewPipe/Sponsorblock for pjone, for Desktop, yt-dlp with Sponsorblock with rss feed for subs, mullvad vpn for high seas sort of shit.
Jellyfin, Spotify and YT Prem.
Prime, Spotify, YouTube, Netflix. Also pay for Twitch
Netflix, Prime, Apple TV, Disney+, HBO, SkyShowtime, Apple Music.
I’m quitting Prime this month; on top of being twice as expensive as the rest, the greedy mf-ers are adding commercials with a price hike if you want no commercials. Also quitting Disney+ and Hulu for lack of content and lack of funds. I’ll be quitting Netflix next. I quit Paramount+ a few months ago now that I’m all caught up on warching all the Star Trek serirs.
Only one: my Jellyfin server.
I presently have 4ish:
- Netflix because there’s always something we want to watch
- Disney+ (in the Disney+Hulu bundle with no ads in either. I’ll be dropping hulu soon for lack of content) for the kids to get their Disney movie fix, plus it also has quite a few movies/shows we generally want to watch
- Nebula because it costs very little and directly supports creators I already watch
- Amazon Prime because I order just enough on Amazon to be worth keeping Prime around for plus the video service.
- SiriusXM because I live in a rural area with crap cell service and I don’t like country music so AM/FM radio isn’t a option
- I don’t have a Plex server or anything like that, which I honestly should get, but I simply just use free streaming websites like 123.movies. Movies-web.app was great but has had some issues recently. I hope they get it/or already have it fixed because it was a very nice, pop-up free experience when it was working.
0 streaming services but sailing the 7 seas
This is the way!
None of the traditiona streaming video ones. I have F1 TV and Spotify. Streaming video and movies are fun, but don’t really match with how my brain works.
It’s way easier to maintain focus on a a video game for me, since it allows me to determine the pace more and it provides constant interaction. If things go to slow, my brain tends to jump focus to the next most interesting thing and get distracted.
An issue I also have with story driven content is that I start feeling the emotions of the characters extremely hard. If something stressful or sad happens then I’ll get very tense, stressed, or sad, which I don’t enjoy too much. So instead of a relaxing activity it becomes a very stressful one for a lot of series.
If I really want to see something I tend to take a 1 month subscription and binge it all in that month.
