Yes I have bad internet at my house and I can tell which app has better engineering (buffering, local storage optimization, video definition downgrading/upgrading based on throughput, etc.)
Netflix works great with a slow or intermittent connection, they've clearly optimized it.
My rank for engineering quality (not UX) are:
(1) Netflix, (2) Amazon Prime, (3) Disney+, (4) HBO Go (I get a stop-the-world spinning icon every minute at times)
HBO Go is so bad that I have to get out a mobile device and "save offline" and cast it to the TV just to watch something.
(I don't use Hulu.)
