I mean, I haven't been a subscriber for a couple years but are they losing a lot of subscribers?

I see some slowing growth particularly across 2021/2022 but as of this report (April 2024) they were still growing through 2023.
260M subscribers. They aren't exactly hurting.

Despite their awful UX, I'm always impressed with how reliable their service is, technically speaking. Video is always good and responsive even on less-than-stellar connections, you can leave a show paused for hours, and resume it almost instantly. Their fast.com speed test is always much faster than your regular internet access, I guess thanks to their Open Connect Appliances.
It must be great to work for them in infrastructure and backends.

No one I know uses Netflix anymore, and I haven't for a while, but from what I've seen their subscriber numbers are actually doing quite well.

It's now over 300 million subscribers, as you say they're doing OK.

I'm not sure I know anyone that _doesn't_ have it
Like seneca, I also don’t know anyone who uses it. That’s interesting. I haven’t used it for around 2 years.
I wonder who uses it when I see their reports, because I don’t know them. I probably have a weird group of friends. I’m sure if I asked, some of my coworkers use it.
My kids would love if we used it. Perhaps it’s big among younger people.

#10so they didn't want to pay for AWS CloudWatch [1]; decided to roll their in-house network flow log collection; and had to re-implement attribution?
i wonder how many hundreds of thousands of dollars network flow logs cost them; obviously at some point it is going to be cheaper to re-implement monitoring in-house.
