Just a dude working on the Jellyfin Roku client while listening to my punk records and watching horror movies.

  • This could go well beyond viewership for them.

    Growing up we didn’t have the Disney channel. Back then it was a premium, paid channel. So with the options being renting tapes, seeing theatrical releases, or the special weekends where the channel was free, I watched very Disney growing up.

    Now, as an adult, I have little connection to their characters, movies, shows, etc. I see others my age making yearly treks to Disney World and I don’t have the same draw. I see people buying Disney merch, and again, I don’t have the same need.

    And because I don’t have strong nostalgia feelings for Disney, I didn’t raise my kids on Disney either.

    If kids aren’t connecting with the Disney IP, as they grow up, they could end up like me - an adult that spends little to no money with Disney.

    And that would be a major disaster beyond viewership for them.

    Wanted one, but we couldn’t afford it.

    Just like the spiral of square post-it notes, the small bags of various chips, the multi color pens, brand name pogs, the pencils that were color on the inside so they looked cool when you sharpened them, and the neon index cards.
