I appreciate the effort, thank you very much! I'll look into it as soon as I'm home, hopefully a VPN makes it accessible👍

Somehow wasn't expecting this in the context of games but of course makes perfect sense. Denuvo =/= DRM, the latter being much more broad. Thanks for the knowledge nugget!

This might not be very popular, but I find their games section to be lacking as well. I've recently tried GOG for the first time expecting a "money for an .exe file" kind of approach for every game that had its Denuvo removed on Steam. I couldn't wait to get my hands on Dragon Quest XI without DRM!

Oh boy, how naive...

That sounds like a really solid approach!

As for Amazon Prime Video, they aren't really a company/service I trust with supporting the artists behind it, also seen by the fact that they're increasing their cut each year (Amazon's average cut is now at 50%, and somehow I have a hunch that they won't stop there). And I was already being generous by asking for a 50% split, compared to platforms like Steam (30%) or the App Store (30-15%) it's insulting.

Basically, for me Qobuz's attractiveness doesn't lie in offering direct downloads, as we all know there are other ways. Personally it's attractiveness lies in not having to support artist by buying tickets to their show, buying their merch, buying CDs and leaving them sealed anyways, donating or funding their sideprojects, but instead in supporting them by directly buying their product, in that case it being their music. All the other stuff is just waste I don't want.

Damn, you've definitely put in the work. Thank you for providing such a detailed feedback, meaning that thanks to you this is now the most up to date resource on how to move from Note Station to Joplin for future peeps that have your same problem!

I think you can rest assured that you've made the best choice in moving to a more flexible format now, regardless of any future "Joplin vs. Obsidian vs. whatever" discussions that might come up. Because if you're annoyed with Note Station now, I can absolutely guarantee that moving decades worth of .nsx notes for all your family, potentially manually, would have been hell on earth in the future.

One last experiment, now that you can: Let's say you wanna move from Joplin to Obsidian tomorrow. These are the #1 and #2 results when searching for "Import Joplin to Obsidian". Just take a look. It's almost comically easy compared to now, so I'd say bright times are ahead :)

The difference might be that Stremio-web works :P

Jokes aside, I sadly can't help you on the technical side, all I know is that Stremio web works, no setup required. I went to Stremio-web, logged-in, chose my favourite public domain 1963 movie "Terror", pressed play and copied the link from the address bar to my clipboard. I then shared that link to three different friends that did not have Stremio and they were all able to watch it, independently. I'd share the link here, but it contains my RD API token, so I'd rather not...

Peario works in a similar fashion, the only difference being that it would coordinate the three streams to keep them continuously synced up.

If you're talking about the FOSS app, it's just a nice UI for your RealDebrid web-interface. It can:

  • tell you how many days you have in your RD subscription & your RD points
  • list the RD+ streams you've clicked on/watched so far
  • stream your RD files, share em, download, all that.
  • download from link/magnet using RD servers
  • search through popular indexers (which RD can't do, but Torrentio does it) and optionally add them to you RD library

But as far as I can tell, it's nothing you can't already do with the RealDebrid webpage & the stremio interface with Torrentio. Unchained looks nice though.

Edit: clarification.
