Use Reelgood or justwatch to search, and you can still find good stuff.
Netflix may have a quality problem, but another one (and a much easier one to fix) is their stupid recommendation algorithm. It shows me nothing but trash and genres (like Love is Blind) I absolutely dont want to see, while I have to use a 3rd party service to dig for gems.
I cant help but wonder if thats skewing their own metrics. People are going to watch trash if thats all they present.
