If Netflix doesn’t fix this buffering issue, this will go down as one of the biggest fails in all of tv/streaming history 🤦♀️ #PaulTyson
TV kept buffering so I tried my iPad 😐 Yes, I have reset my router 🤬 #PaulTyson
Uh oh @netflix. Live streaming keeps freezing up. Someone’s going to get fired for not being prepared for the traffic overload. Better get it fixed before the real fight starts. Could be bad. #TysonPaul #netflixdown
Is Netflix down for everybody???? Literally my stuff will not load
Well folks @netflix just crashed and won’t come back. What an embarrassment. Perfect example of DEI crap
