I'm sad to see that nobody is talking about it. Netflix got rid of 30 people from animation. Good people who did excellent work no longer have a job but those on top whose lousy decisions put us in this position are still employed and still determining our fate. That is wrong on so many levels.

@7cyh I know people who dropped Netflix because it dropped those shows. So it's not exactly as you'd like to paint it.
Not sure about "With Kind Regards from Kindergarten," but "Antiracist Baby", "Wings of Fire", and "Pearl" were all the sort of toxic content that parents are not interested in showing their children.
Unfortunately the culture of Netflix was infiltrated by decision makers who approved these shows. It does appear the company is trying to correct course, and all of these are cancelled. It isn't the fault of animation staff that poor decisions were made by leadership.
We can only hope the people who greenlit these projects are purged, and new projects attractive to a wider audience are approved, so that more animators can find work again.
those lousy decisions were bought and paid for by klaus schwab. revenue isn't earned by the subscriber anymore, it's generated by the deep pocketed investors with ulterior motives that have nothing to do with entertainment.
