Always use them. Like someone else said. Sounds be low as hell at times.

They actually have that option. It’s called description or some shyt. I had it turned on accidentally once and almost went crazy. nikkas was describing every single detail
For me it's either on anime that isn't dubbed obviously, or when there's too much noise to be expected during the time im watching whatever. I I've been making sure lately to turn them off if not needed kuz i almost always end up just reading the subtitles instead of watching what's going on

I prefer watching everything in subtitles 
it kinda helps me stay tuned in plus sometimes I may misunderstand what was said due to an actors/actresses accent or voice not being clear enough but with subtitles it's easier for me to understand what's being said without having to rewind.

That’s because you can’t hear the dialog. Modern tvs have the sound coming from the back and depends on bouncing the sound back of the wall to your ears. That doesn’t carry voices well.

Can’t move with me in this digital space
Always prefer subtitles hate not hearing what they're saying, I don't even feel like im reading anything its just part of the movie for me
Peacock is obnoxious with that option because it pops up on random ass shows.
I remember watching Quantum Leap and thought the narration was a part of the damn show. Until it got to the opening title:
"A huge tv show title pops up....directed by blah blah blah"
Like WTF

There was an article (or video) on the BBC a few months ago talking about this, it's actually a complex recording issue and how microphones work nowadays.
Always have subtitles on but ever since I used Audio Descriptions for Netflix’s ‘Narcos’, I go out of my way to turn them on for any show/movie that have them.
During the pandemic, I had to when i was living with my two kids in a one bedroom apt. Could only watch my shows and sports shyt after they fell asleep. So it became a staple.
Now that i bought my house, and they got they own rooms, i still use it. Just a habit.

I never watch without it 
I used to ONLY watch TV with the captions on…
Now, it kind of takes me out of the show. I even look back and wonder how I used to watch shows with that on lmbo…

Help me understand what this means? You would think if you are on your phone you wouldn't be looking up reading the subtitles....
Or can it possibly be that the young generation is so used to being on their phone and always texting that that read better than they listen? And they have superpowers that allow them to simultaneously absorb the text of the subtitles as well as whatever it is they are looking at on their phone
