MegI wonder what ux research led to streaming services moving the "continue watching" rows way below the fold of their home pages. Do they think it encourages you to never finish anything because you just keep starting new things from their carousel?
Whatever it is it spread widely.
Amelia Bellamy-Royds :progress:@megmac@social.treehouse.systems I used to* get so angry at Netflix for this. Either always put it at the top, or in a different section in the menu, or anywhere I can find it in two clicks.
Are they really worried that we'll just binge one show & then stop & never look at the rest of their library? Like, why would they benefit from discouraging people to continue watching?
(* Used to, because I don't have a Netflix subscription anymore, and the Crave & CBC Gem apps have dedicated "continue watching" sections next to the personal watch list. Although I think they also both have continue-watching feeds that bounce around the home page.)
