I was on this train. I paid for Netflix for a handful of years. Really my only complaint is that I couldn't share screenshots because of the DRM (you don't want free advertising?). But then the selection went downhill, new seasons of shows I was watching started appearing on other services. The UI got worse and slow. I eventually started getting pissed off and was wondering why I was paying for a frustrating service.
I had a very similar arc for YouTube Premium a few years after that one, I must have been a subscriber for 5 years at least. But then it got worse and worse.
