Dāngēng means a single update: a platform releasing one episode a day where it used to release two. The word comes from Chinese web-novel and drama fandom, where updates are counted per day. Viewers use it as a complaint, because it stretches a binge into a slow wait. In Where the Mask Ends, Youku moved to one episode a day for members from October 22 to 28, and Netflix matched it. Fans on Weibo and Reddit grumbled about it in almost the same words.
