It was all getting spoiled for me in social media anyway.
I thankfully haven’t seen any spoilers for anything since moving to Lemmy… on other sites it’s silly easy to accidentally run into a spoilers for anything remotely popular 😭
Unless you follow ST communities here… then oops I guess spoilers are in your feed for each episode 😳
And you know what? It makes sense. A big part of making a moment of a media launch is to get like-minded people talking about it. It’s harder now that media is largely on-demand, so it’s great to have a place to go for the discussion afterwards.
Which is why staggered, inconsistent launches make no damn sense in the 21st century. When pirates can deliver a way to join that hype moment and you can’t, for the content you’re creating on the service your followers are already paying for you have entirely missed the point.
