Yep, link it with real debrid As you are, sailing the seas in style.. Great UI. Evan has a calendar to keep track of your series.

I am an old pirate and I cringe when people bash debrid services for their pirate pride, honestly it is a life changer if you are willing to switch to fully stream (I still seed the content I gather with the Arr stack for my Plex).

It just seems silly to be like "I'm not going to pay for streaming, so I'm going to pirate" and then paying someone to do the piracy for you.

It's because paying isn't the issue. I'm not rejecting streaming on the basis of price (though, the current price of paying for even a couple at once doesn't help), I'm rejecting it on the basis of it being a fractured, inconsistent and lacking service that fundamentally acts against the interest of its users. If a streaming service offered the same things stremio+debrid does I'd happily pay 10x the price.

People used to pay others for burnt DVDs and CDs back in the day if they didn't have a pc with a burner themselves. Same thing really.

Isn’t the problem that legal streaming services don’t provide a good enough service/content? Even if you put the cash out to subscribe to all services, searching each one, one at a time, they still might not have the video content you want. The market failed us, and culture is locked away.

[-] kratoz29@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

It might be silly, but do you know what else is silly? The price of the service, honestly 3 bucks per month should save you a ton of headaches that you would get if you want to stream torrents.

It’s basically a seedbox, people have been using those for piracy for years. It’s a convenient way to have access to an Internet connection that has several times more throughput than your home connection. You can configure Stremio to just grab torrents directly if you don’t want to use a debrid service.

Yeah.. Trakt also started in the enshitification path though (for some it has been there for a while).
