Most of the FX Networks-owned content has been gone from Netflix for a while; it's been on Hulu or Prime Video.

Sadly Hulu is only available in the U.S., although I find that I can rent/buy from google a lot of content that isn't available on Netflix.

At one point you start wondering why you pay for Netflix.

I just feel like supporting the company that gave us an alternative to media riddled with commercial breaks and having to deal with TV providers.

This is exactly why Netflix is banking on original content going forward.

They have a lot of great original content. In particular they're the leader in stand up comedy.

Quite a bit of FX content (including IASIP) left Netflix this month due to expiring contracts. Convenient timing for the Disney deal.
