Please do some research. The shows were costing Netflix tons of money, perhaps more than what they were bringing it. They looked to compromise on it by reducing the episode counts, but Disney refused that, so Netflix had no choice but to off them. It's also not a coincidence that this is all happening now. You think Disney is going to play ball with Netflix when they're planning to be a direct competitor to them?

Their subscriber growth is doing quite well by the way and they're turning out solid original programming all the time. Russian Doll, and Umbrella Academy this month alone are getting huge praise from critics and viewers.
