Slightly older (2021) article I found while searching for this place. It pretty much says what we’ve all been saying.

Stop blaming the pandemic. The reason Netflix can't hold on to customers is they canceled everything worth watching.

Jacked up prices, added a ton of crappy content instead of focusing on fewer but better quality shows, “crackdown” on password sharing when they once encouraged it.

Yeah, they started canceling shit long before the pandemic, I think around 2016. Once they decided to go all-in on original content, they began letting licensing contracts expire.

What did they cancel? Legit question because I only had one of my shows cancelled.

A better question would be - what DIDN'T they cancel? Here's a list of Netflix Originals they cancelled:

That list also doesn't seem to include shows that were informed they were getting cut, so ended it prematurely.
