I have resubscribed to Netflix after cancelling about 6 months ago and I think there's been a change to the GUI which I really don't care for. I could be wrong but didn't the TV app use to work in the following way: after selecting a movie or television show, the first click would open a menu that would then allow further options including playing the movie or an episode of the TV show? I miss this. Currently, they're is one option at the to of my screen when I open the app that has a selectable 'More Info' option but everything else does not and the media just starts playing immediately upon selection.
I miss the 'menu on first click' behavior. Is there a way to get back to that?
Thanks.

I've been learning Godot for the past few months and I'm happy to report that it's been going well. Little by little, things are clicking into place. (I hugely, highly, undoubtedly, recommend GDQuest courses)
I'm ready to start working on a small project to test out my skills, and it's going to be a top down pixel art game.
But to be completely honest, I suck at drawing. I suck at drawing as in, I can make stick figures at best. So forget any fancy software for drawing in general like gimp or photoshop.
What I'm looking for is a software meant for pixel art and that makes my life easy, in both drawing and animating. Bonus points if it allows me to trace (I'm not planning to copy/steal art, but I do need reference points, at least for now)
Do you guys have any recommendations? It can be free or paid. I don't mind paying as long the software is worth it.

After this Tildes post I was curious about the review scores, Steam Deck compatibility and ProtonDB ratings for the first Digiphile bundle and figured it's worth sharing. I've added two extra columns compared to the Humble Bundle posts:
- Early access because some of these games are "early access" releases.
- All Time Low sourced from isthereanydeal
Digiphile - Return of the Immersive Sim is now available with the following games, grouped by payment tier.
$9 Tier (aprox £6.85, €7.77)
Steam Page OpenCritic Steam Recent/All Operating Systems Steam Deck ProtonDB Early Access All Time Low Blood West 81 89 / 89 Win ✅ Verified 🎖️ Platinum No $9.37 Ctrl Alt Ego N/A 93 / 93 Win ❓ Unknown 🟨 Gold No $9.45 $13 Tier (aprox £9.89, €11.23)
Everything in the $9 tier and the following:
Steam Page OpenCritic Steam Recent/All Operating Systems Steam Deck ProtonDB Early Access All Time Low Shadows of Doubt 68 67 / 82 Win ✅ Verified 🎖️ Platinum No $9.24 System Shock (2023) 77 88 / 90 Win 🟨 Playable 🎖️ Platinum No $16.08 Fallen Aces N/A 95 / 98 Win ✅ Verified 🟨 Gold ⏳ Yes $10.83 $20 Tier (aprox £15.22, €17.27)

Steam Page OpenCritic Steam Recent/All Operating Systems Steam Deck ProtonDB Early Access All Time Low Blood West: Dead Man’s Promise N/A 80 / 80 Win N/A N/A No $5.58 Does anyone have experience with any of the games and, if so, would you recommend them? Is there anything in here that you're particularly excited to play? Should we post other Digiphile bundles or is this a terrible selection compared to Humble Choice?
