Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

We've slowly come full circle, back to the age of cable TV.

Instead of paying for a bunch of channels we don't need we're paying for a bunch of shows we'll never watch.

TV shows should be released via RSS and a subscription is per-show for like $2 month. Then everyone can just have a single app with just the shows they want.

2015 - 2018 was glorious. Netflix, Hulu, and HBO GO covered about 95% of my needs. Barely pirated anything.
