The decision paralysis I was getting from opening a streaming site and seeing a bazillion thumbnails to scroll through to decide if something looks good enough, was stressful to the point where I just stopped watching stuff for a few years.
Now I have a couple of lists in my notes app with films and shows that I’ve seen recommended on discussions of other stuff I’ve liked, and I just have pick a title from a list.
My success rate for actually managing to sit down and relax while watching something has improved massively, and I’m actually enjoying watching most of the stuff in my lists too.
Stuff to watch.
