The quality also went downhill. In my region Disney+ removed HDR support from all titles and dropped the bitrate to very low on top of that there are so many ads. Video quality is shit now. Even with subscription I'm watching PSA encodes.
PSA encodes are one of the best for popular shows and movies. Just give it a try. Generally their encodes is to be consumed as it is and 4k versions might not work with some devices since they only give HDR10 and Dolby Vision encodes.
If you intend to watch it with media server with transcoding better go with QxR

Just debloat it and you are good to go until you hard reset.

They are after tiktok because of its influence and not having total control of the algorithm. For other social media platforms govt can simply write an email and companies will comply immediately by censoring the information. Also this post somehow make sense.
