I have three major gripes with Apple TV (plus and otherwise)

1. The website is ass. i’ve attempted nervous times to sign into my gaming PC before giving up and using my Apple device. Great for my Apple device but ass if I ever want to watch it on my gaming PC , meaning i’m consuming less media on it. This makes it uniquely terrible for its other goal of folks purchasing their media on there since it’s linked with Apple TV. Idiotic for a streaming service.

2. There’s no consistent release of shows to watch all year round. Netflix imo is the only services that releases stuff every month. for other services this is no issue since they have a backlog of content for consumers to consume but Apple TV+ does not have this pleasure imo. for a service that relies on subscriptions for its revenue, it’s the worst to plead for its case.

3. No watch history. Whenever I hear a new show recommendation I immediately open the tv app and add it to my up next. The Tv’s app’s ability to connect to various streaming serves makes it the nexus for most media. Why the hell does it not support the opposing feature of saving the history of what just watched? It should be so easy for it to add on a Letterboxd like feature from there.
