If you can read instructions, it’s not that hard to set these things up. It’s just a matter of what you value more. You can spend less than a day setting up the needed *arr software and Plex/Emby/Jellyfin/whatever and have things as you want it, or you can periodically spend time looking for new streaming sites when the one you settled in on finally gets shut down, and meanwhile, you’re at the mercy of the site for what’s uploaded and in what quality.
If you have it locally hosted, you also don’t lose your ability to watch any of the movies you wanted to every time the internet goes out, unlike streaming sites.

Lol. Like I said. Posts like these just show me how disconnected techbros are from normal people.

Yes, and people coming from paid streaming services value convenience over complexity. They would rather have a free streaming site than learn to self-host.
You don’t have to “learn how to use a streaming site” like you would need to learn how to set up a fucking technology stack, lol. I don’t even know what the other two things are, and I’m a techbro. I guess I can spend more time learning and configuring instead of just entering a URL and making sure I have uBlock Origin installed.
Don’t I also need to download content for it anyways? Sheeh. This is getting pretty complicated for the average netflix user!
Sigh. Don’t let technology control you. Know what you’re doing, and why you’re doing it.
