Just wanted to check some user reviews for a serie, now IMDB forces me to create an account. Such bullshit to read some reviews. No fucking way. Fuck corporate enshittification. Fuck IMDB. Fuck Amazon.

Not sure what your talking about. You can still access IMDB from a browser. You talking about something else?

Yesterday I went to read a review on a show and when you click to read past the preview you hit a wall asking for an account (and in my recollection a payment). Must be a recent change.
