After more than a decade with them, with the little use we hadand they just kept increasing prices every year, so I decided to give them the flick, and we are not missing it.

I fucking hate Netflix!
I continue to be glad I've not paid for a streaming service, cable, satellite, or any other tv/media service in the entirety of my life.
My mother stopped paying for satellite tv in like 2014ish, my sister stopped paying for Netflix in 2019, and I've provided an Emby server with an Ombi and arr stack based requests system to my whole family since 2017.
Those services have done more than enough to prove they don't deserve my money.
the main reasons are: cancelling seasons of good shows after 1,2, or 3 seasons, just to boost subscription numbers.
limiting how much people can watch it on different devices, and increasing prices, with decreasing quality.
This is a problem of their own making having started off so lenient with account usage. In the end, it's their house and their rules though. Deal with it or set your sails.

And people always are confused when I tell them I don't watch shows and movies anymore.

Didn't they announce they were going to enforce this years ago? That's around the time I stopped giving them money
This one was always in place, the one they started enforcing a few years ago was the multiple households rule, which was slightly more draconian. I.e I paid for 4 screens, but then they decided the 4 screens all have to be in one physical household. Share it with your mum who lives 100 km away? You crazy?
Incidentally, that's when I cancelled it. I was ok being limited to 4 viewers at a time (which also cost extra), I usually had 2-3 at the same time, rarely 4. But being limited to one physical location? Fuck that.

Sail the high seas, then.
Especially if it's a great TV show or a movie and you really want to keep it.
