          Netflix has mobile games, is that news?

          Quite a few awesome titles to boot Deaths door, TMNT, katana zero, Hades, deadcells, spiritfarer etc.

          Edit : removed IAP too for the likes of Narcos, Arcanium…

              Had bought that long ago but honestly there’s enough that work both on ios and android. Getting it just for games probably not worth it.

              If only they add cross platform saves

    Back when I was telling everyone to watch Severance.

    "Is that on Netflix?

    -hum, Apple TV I think.

    -you have Apple TV ?

    -…sort off"

      I had cousins account and I found torrenting still much more convenient than having to open Netflix in the propper browser or app to play with semi-decent quality.

        In my country, Netflix shows often come out later than in the US so why pay money when I can get a greater variety of shows earlier for free on other streaming sites?

        Streaming is a gray area. Germany is relatively strict with torrents but on streaming, you neither own nor share it at any point

            germany has some wild piracy law, last i heard.

            Probably one of the most cringe places because of that.

              In Russian law only sharing is illegal, not downloading. And proving your intent is impossible if you don’t have formal education. Basically “I didn’t know” is rock-solid defence.

                I think it’s technically the same in Germany but indent doesn’t matter that much so it’s illegal even if you claim you didn’t know. Also owning it is also illegal I think. When you stream it, you don’t own it.

                And honestly I don’t see the benefit of downloading it. Do I have to wait till the whole season is out or do I torrent each episode separately? Neither sounds fun. I can just click the episode I want to watch and watch it. Why bother to download it as a whole?

                  What does this has to do with anything? You just download and watch. You can even download and watch at the same time. Or download and watch later even without internet.

          Radarr is your personal fleet that will go plundered and get the booty for you while you lay in your comfy hammock drinking rum.

          (You tell Radarr a movie and it will download it for you, rename it and add it to your media center automatically, also for upcoming ones. Sonarr does the same for shows, downloads the episodes once they are out.)

          Jellyfin can be self-hosted with Radarr to automatically download shows you want to it and be streamed with Jellyfin.

          Glorified VLC.

          Look, for me to “stream” movies to my friends using VLC I have to set up a finnicky RTSP server and get the settings right and then even then half the time it chokes on the video and the stream stops because it doesn’t like certain file types/encodes.

          Jellyfin takes out all the hard work of setting up a complicated streaming service for you and your friends.

      Yes, it really does come to morals.

      Like, would I really feel ok supporting an industry like that? With their shitty wages, horrible copyright practices, just evil corporate practices (nepotism, extortion, sexism, etc) - not exclusive to entertaining industry, but I can def chose not to support & fuel the suffering.

      I want & do pay for small studio projects, FOSS initiatives, etc.
      Let’s normalise that so that such support may grow and change the world.

      Long live there *arr services & their contribution to worlds culture & humanity through equality/comradeship.

        Yep, supporting artists and not parasitic corporations is always preferable. Unfortunately, said parasitic conglomerates try to get their greedy piggy tendrils into everything they can

          Yeah, it’s really hard and often impossible to support the artists that you want.

          A good movie, but most of the people involved made fixed wages (no sales) whilst 90+% of the protis goes to the studio and the lead actor and director (+ credited people that never even saw the project, but you know, money favours)?
          Yeah, your money vote does not go to what you want to support/sponsor.

          A publisher is selling a game that it got by buying a studio & getting rid of the devs? What’s their added value? That’s just capital yields, like landlording.

        I have grown up with pirating. I didn’t even know that you can pay for stuff for a while lol. Yet just the other day I bought the plushie DLC for portal revolution, caz it was an amazing experience, and it was a free passion project from the fans to the fans.

          I’m sad this isn’t actually a domain.

          I can’t buy it since .de is a country domain and I don’t live there.

          I mean, I probably still can buy it, but I don’t want to be rude and buy domains for a country that I don’t live in

    If you’re going to have one service, the last one to get is Netflix. Hulu and Disney are $20 ad-free in a package right now. That’s probably the best value out there.

      T-Mobile offers the basic edition (with ads) for free on my plan at least. knowing Netflix though, that probably won’t last much longer. oh well, I’ll still have the high seas.
