    @HBO @hbomax Bill Maher is the worst thing about HBO and I’m including the functionality of HBO Max.

    @HBOMaxHelp I have a Roku Smart TV and the closed captions either appear sporadically or they do not show at all. In particular, the English closed captions for Our Flag Means Death are nowhere to be found 👀 I have turned the subtitles off and on several times, didn’t fix it.

    @hbomax The main problem of hbo is that it does not treat people seriously, all movies are done here the same known character, story good against bad , good wins in the end with one obstacle.. people want more, there are many good movies , pls try to follow a bit netflix or canal plus

    The stupidest @CHANEL commercial keeps messing up my @hbomax . HBO please remove one of the worst commercials ever.

    @hbomax I don't know why the TV sign in doesn't work. It tells me to enter the code but every time I do it asks me to create a new account. I already have an account. I don't get it.

    @PMSchumacker @hbomax Hopefully it's better than the mess that was season 2. Such a drop in quality compared to season 1

    @JoshuaConkel @Srirachachau @hbomax it’s like on the verge of impossible. the rights are split into several parts and i believe that there’s someone who owns one aspect (maybe cryptkeeper) that just refuses to work with anyone

    @GameTheoryHBO @SactownBlue @hbomax how did you think they got hired? Have you seen Shannahan’s resume before going to work for daddy?

    Danny Kane (@hurikane627) reported

    Oh. And don't even try to say it's because too many people were using it at once. I love u guys. I want u to succeed. Your quality of programming is excellent. Was just much easier to watch on @hbomax

    Hey @hbomax, why does the updated version of your app automatically skip to the next episode before the scene after the credits?! Is there a way to click out of it on an AppleTV? I’ve tried every button and none work.

    Whenever big issues occur in the world, I would usually just stay out of it because I felt that there was no way I could make a difference. However I am going off what Owen Dennis said about these Twitter trend parties which helps the show get noticed (@cartoonnetwork, @hbomax).

    Why do y’all have “Ad Different World” so out of order at the end of the last season @hbomax ?!? Fix that! Those episodes are from other seasons…it ends with Ron who hung them leave. There shouldn’t be another episode coming on afterwards

    @JoshuaConkel @hbomax I would take off 3 days from work and binge the entire series, pls make this happen @hbomax

    @WB_Animation @hbomax @wbd I don’t know don’t who told y’all #YoungJusticePhantoms need d to have all these real world issues in it…but give them a raise IMMEDIATELY. This is what animation should be..

    Can @DCComics and @hbomax release The Batman before the weekend is over so I can make my family watch it before they go back to work and school.

    @billmaher @hbomax No thanks. Way too much ego and not enough empathy. It doesn't work as you become elderly and selfish.

    @laurabaerart You can definitely turn on captions in the @hbomax app! If it’s not working, you may need to update your app. I hope that helps!

    It’s just such an awful feeling. I feel the same heartbreak as them and I feel the pain daily and I can’t do anything to resolve it and @hbomax is taking 10,000 painful years to #RenewOurFlagMeansDeath this is how I die

  • alias_petrichor
    Zoë (Our Flag Means Death obsessed currently) (@alias_petrichor) reported

    @david_jenkins__ @phildonephy Sounds like yet another reason to #RenewOurFlagMeansDeath , @hbomax. Not enough romcoms, this person says! More OFMD can help fix that.

    @HBOMaxHelp maybe consult with literally any other streaming service! i have zero problems with every other service but EVERY DAY ALL DAY have issues with yours freezing on different tvs so i know it's not my tv or my service...

    @HBOMaxHelp why is it saying this for every single show I try to watch? "Title not available." Or "error loading"

    @hbomax actually had to search for @billmaher #adulting tonight. How is it not promoted on your home page? Still doesn’t come up in your search field. Your marketing dept need some help?
