So, you’ve got a Netflix problem. A device has overstayed its welcome. We've all been there. Aunt Mildred's smart fridge is hogging a precious viewing slot.
The Great Netflix Device Purge of 2020 (and Beyond!)
Remember 2020? Simpler times. Except maybe not when sharing Netflix was concerned. Let's dive in.
Step 1: Become the Account Overlord
First things first: You need the power. The power of the account owner, that is! Log in, my friend. To the Netflix mothership.
Step 2: The Profile Picture Pilgrimage
Find your profile. The one with your favorite show recommendations (and maybe a questionable viewing history). Click it. You know you want to.
Step 3: Account Settings - A Dangerous Journey
Okay, now for the slightly scary part: Account settings. Don't worry, you won't accidentally cancel your subscription (probably). Find the button; it's usually hiding.
Step 4: "Manage Devices" – The Holy Grail
Look for something that says "Manage Devices" or similar. This is where the magic happens. Get ready to banish unwanted screens!
Step 5: The Moment of Truth
Behold! A list of devices mocking you with their presence. Your ex-boyfriend's iPad. Your neighbor’s Roku. The possibilities are endless.
Step 6: The "Sign Out" Slaughter
Find the device you want gone. Click "Sign Out". Do it with conviction! Picture Aunt Mildred reaching for a sad, unsubscribed fridge.
Step 7: Repeat if Necessary
Got more freeloaders? Repeat steps 5 and 6. Until your viewing kingdom is pure. Feel the power surge through you.
My (Slightly Unpopular) Opinion
Okay, hear me out. Sharing Netflix is great. Until it's not.
I mean, are we *really* saving money? Or just enabling our cousin Greg's late-night binge-watching habits? Think about it.
Sometimes, a clean break is necessary. Your viewing happiness is worth more than a shared password. It’s the 2020 way, kind of.
Bonus Tip: The Nuclear Option
Feeling truly savage? Change your password. Boom! Every device logged in gets kicked out. Total annihilation.
Use this power wisely. The fallout can be... dramatic. But effective.
A Final Word (of Caution?)
Remember, with great Netflix power comes great responsibility. Don’t blame me if Aunt Mildred stages a protest. Or if Greg starts using *your* Amazon Prime.
You have been warned. Happy viewing!
Disclaimer: These steps were accurate at the time of writing. Netflix loves to change things up. If something looks different, don't panic. Just blame the algorithm.
And maybe Google it. Just in case.
