    I feel conflicted about sites like those vs things like torrenting and other p2p. Torrenting is individuals sharing things directly.but aren’t those sites hosting the pirated content and serving their own ads along side? That feels closer to theft for me than piracy.

      Torrents also will have higher quality, usually noticeable pretty stark in action scenes.

      I’ll admit I prefer fmovies and the like when I don’t want to wait for a download and want to watch it now.

      Last Week Tonight is often in that category.

      But shows like Parks and Rec, Lower Decks, that shit gets torrented.

      Besides, I think Fmovies has a much lower barrier to entry than torrenting.

        Just set up sonarr for TV shows (radarr for movies, or any or the other arr suite apps for their media). I usually watch last week tonight on Monday mornings, but the file is normally there before midnight. Sonarr automatically looks for it in multiple torrent indexers once it’s been released, sends a torrent file to qbittorrent (matching my quality settings, seeder counts, etc), then copies and renames the downloaded file to my Plex TV folder so I have it available very soon after it’s released
