Why did Netflix cancel the One Day At A Time reboot?

Why on earth did Netflix cancel the One Day At A Time reboot? Was it due to poor ratings or did many people find it unappealing? Because from the two episodes I have seen of the reboot of One Day At A Time it is funny and awesome. What I think caused it's cancellation was that Netflix should've never gotten the series and it would've done better on CBS in my eyes. Also did Norman Lear have a hand in this reboot before he passed away as well?

Netflix actually did a pretty good job at explaining this decision:

"Speaking at this year's Code Conference (June 11) in Scottsdale, Arizona, Netflix VP of Content Cindy Holland admitted One Day at a Time was "a well-made show", but that wasn't enough to attract the required fan base.
"The basic calculation is, how much viewing are we getting for what it costs?" Holland explained. "We also look at, is it reaching different audiences? Is it gaining critical acclaim? Is it doing something for us as a business that we like?" Discussing the viewing numbers, Holland continued: "We wouldn't have renewed that show on a viewing-to-cost basis. "But it was such a well-made show, and we were so proud of Norman [Lear], Gloria [Calderon Kellett], Mike Royce and everybody involved with it that we wanted to see – could we broaden the audience? Could it gain some more steam? "And it would grow a little bit, but we just couldn't find the broad audience we hoped it could get and it deserved to get. And so, after three seasons, we decided to end it." "
