That's me. Yep.

That's me. Yep.

And then we had, I mean, granted it's early in the year, but I think my favorite tech story of the year thus far, on Valentine's Day at just shy of 9.30 in the morning Eastern, there was a post on The Verge, Netflix finally decides to play nice and support the Apple TV app. So reading from that post, with shows also appearing in the Continue Watching section.

The Verge has also verified that Netflix is now listed as a participating service within the Apple TV app alongside the apps that were already supported, though this isn't yet reflected on Apple's website. The integration appears to still be in the process of rolling out. The entire Netflix catalog isn't available yet, and only US-based users have reportedly been able to get it working.

Apple and Netflix both have yet to announce the update. Again, this was Valentine's Day, just about 9.30 in the morning Eastern. And the world rejoiced. So many people were so incredibly excited and justifiably, I'm not trying to imply that's bad. So many people were so excited about this. I am no longer a Netflix subscriber. And beyond that, I almost never use the Apple TV app.

My mental model for the Apple TV app, which full stop is incorrect, but my mental model is that's where I go to watch Apple TV plus stuff. That's really the only time I ever use it. I cannot emphasize enough. I know that's weird and probably by any metric wrong, but that's just the way I think of it.

But I can tell you that everyone was super excited about this during the morning of Valentine's Day. Then, about 2.30 in the afternoon on Valentine's Day, this year, this same day, a new post from The Verge. Netflix says its brief Apple TV app integration was a mistake. Again, about 2.30 p.m.

Eastern, Netflix spokesperson Momo Xu has told The Verge that this morning's window where Netflix appeared as a participating service on Apple TV, including temporary support for the watch list and continue watching features, was an error that has now been rolled back. Stupendous work, Netflix. Just incredible job.

And I think my favorite summary, which this made the rounds when it was tweeted or actually posted, but a friend of the show, Joe Rosensteil, wrote on both a tweet and a post on Mastodon and a post on his website.

Oh, we don't have to be in the Apple TV app. Why not? Because we don't want to be. Eat crap. It's like, I don't know. I find this kind of behavior very off-putting and very anti-customer, anti-consumer. And so here it is. It's so funny because... everyone rejoiced on the morning and early afternoon of Valentine's Day that this had finally happened.
