Query: Why is Hulu so good at telling me what I want to watch next and Netflix so bad at it?

I imagine it partially has to do with Netflix’s focus on pushing its own new content, but Hulu has some pretty successful stuff of its own, too, so I don’t think that’s quite the whole answer.

Maybe Hulu’s content is better tailored to your taste

No, it’s not about that. There is stuff on Netflix that I want to see, and Netflix has the data to know that, but they don’t surface that content in the incredible way Hulu does.

Let me put it slightly differently: your content preferences on Hulu are more cohesive than those on Netflix, and as such, it’s easier to surface the stuff you like there.

Again, no, it’s not that. Feel free to check out the rest of the thread, but it’s much simpler: Netflix doesn’t do a good job of showing me the things that I obviously want to watch and haven’t yet seen. Hulu does. It’s mainly UI. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
