The only source we have that it's a rumor is Netflix. Netflix is also my source: Several shows that were released in bulk for previous seasons are releasing between 1 and 3 episodes per week for their current seasons.
True, I am relying on their statement. That said, my personal experience is that Netflix is generally still binge-able while every other streaming service is not. Maybe you and I are watching different content.
(/me busy binge watching the latest Dragon Prince release).
