  A spectacularly dark pattern to have the setting only available on the device you never use the service on.

    That settings page also works in mobile web browsers. But yes, it’s not discoverable from the app.

  The most egregious is that there's still no setting to prevent skipping the credits. It's so distracting when you finish a movie or series and instead of having some time to reflect on it, you get served an ad for some of their other show.

    This seems to be awful trend in general. I often like to see the credits usually for song credits and most of the time they seem to get interrupted by this insistence on launching the next show. You see something similar now with youtube, where before the videos ends the real estate on the screen for the last 10 seconds becomes filled with suggestions for what to watch next. Often to the detriment of some important visual that's still on the screen. It's almost like there's a genuine fear that someone stopping to concentrate on the present represents a serious threat to their engagement metrics. I can say that I end up consuming less of all this stuff as a result of the frustration.
