Interesting to see another potential 4% no-annual fee card for dining after the devaluation of the Uber Visa (to 3%, only redeemable as Uber cash). Curious to see how long US Bank keeps it - even in the past when they took a bath (e.g. the US Bank Cash+) they tended to put in quarterly spend limits for earn rather than just cut the reward rate on the whole.
$15 streaming credit seems pretty usable - doing the math against the 5% streaming categories of the discover It/Chase Freedom (assuming you stack both for six months of these categories), math is nice unless you subscribe to a ton of services. Very easy to get the 12th month free with a Netflix 4K or Spotify Family subscription at $15/$16 a month.

With a lot of personal knowledge on the high multiplier dining cards (all the way back to Citi MTVu Forward at 5x), I don't see 4x on a no AF card lasting long (as noted with Barclays Uber). Perhaps in the short-term, but what happens on these cards is there is just not a lot of 1x spending to offset.
The $15 streaming credit is interesting because it doesn't require that you spend a certain amount per month as I read it (but you need to have a participating charge every month). So, you can subscribe to a low cost service (Hulu $1.99 or Disney + standalone or a participating music service).
Great to see new cards come in the market and for people to get in with a new issuer.

Is there a list of streaming services with are covered by $15 per month credit? There is a mentioning of Netflix, Hulu and more with reference to program rules but I couldn’t find them.
