I recommend using Tor browser as an alternate option. For anybody who can't use a VPN or doesn't want to.

I'm not sure if streaming 1080p video over Tor would be very appreciated by the rest of the network. Or that it would be a very pleasant experience.

Do you always stream porn in 1080p? I guess I never thought about the quality, but I honestly don’t expect anything more than 720

Does the resolution really matter? I may be wrong, but I think nobody runs a Tor node, giving away their bandwidth for free and risking jail time, just so that some random dude in Arkansas can watch some porn.

Definitely not the right scenario for tor. If you dont care about your privacy and just want to see some titty boombom Fanny maracas then even the cheapest VPN would be a better experience.

Really though a decent VPN should something everyone has access to though anyway.

I think a vpn is simpler than tor personally. Also then videos gonna be buffering for a minute on tor lol

Nobody is going to prefer tor to a vpn.

I just use OperaGX's shitty free VPN if I need it. It works enough to get any vpn needed jobs done.
