Casting support is still available on older Chromecast devices or TVs that support Google Cast natively, according to Netflix’s support page

Over the last weekend I was surprised to learn that you can't stream from the mobile web interface of at least some, if not most, of the streaming apps.

    Use desktop mode on the broswer and then just use regular screen sharing. Its how I block ads on prime video since i can still use ad block on firefox and just stream to my tv instead of using the native app on the tv with ads. I assume the same thing will work with Netflix as well. Worst case if you have a samsung device use dex to stream the device to the tv open a browser with ad block and then watch the show. Or alternarively just pirate the content and forget about the shitty streaming services
