Reportedly high budget has brought Apple TV+ a lot of prestige, but not a lot of viewers.

There's plenty Id really like to watch on Apple TV. In fact, I watched Severance using my parents account while they had it temporarily. But now that I've tried it, I know that there's no point in me getting it because they make it as hard as possible to watch anything if you don't have specific devices. Literally all the other streaming services make it stupid easy to watch what you want using any device. But Apple still has a decades old stick up their ass about proprietary bullshit and they want you to get an iPhone for the simplest experience. I have loads of different devices and I ended up using an old MacBook with chrome to cast the browser to my TV. And that was really annoying and I'm not about to pay for that experience. You want my money? Make it easy. It's that simple.

Maybe a bit late to the party but I know you can watch through https://tv.apple.com/ after you login

I just watch shows. Don't care which network they come from. :)
