Streaming prices are out of hand. What are cheaper alternatives?

Genuinely pisses me off to read comments like this. People are asking for a solution to a problem and instead they get this self-righteous "oh why don't you just do something entirely different" shit. I swear it's 100x worse on Lemmy than on Reddit too.
I know it isn't coming from a place of ill intent but still.

it reads to me like their solution is to cancel it. What other solutions could there be?

OP asked about alternative streaming platforms

Ok, my solution is to just not. I’ve cut way back on my consumption of tvs and movies. They’re just not worth it anymore and I have many other choices for mindless entertainment
