    Flixify is amazing, the only drawback is you need to invite people. And i am out of invites

    Those sites all have ridiculously low bitrates; way lower than I can personally tolerate. I’ve switched to torrenting everything at MUCH higher quality. Takes some effort to get good torrents and sometimes seeds are an issue but the end result is worth it. Thinking of getting a seedbox while I’m at it too.

    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

    Stremio can do it too as long as you have correct plugins

    Imagine generating ad revenue for sketchy sites serving stolen content

        The Venn diagram cross-section of people using that service to watch those videos versus the circle of people not running an ad blocker would seem to be very very very small.

        I will, because it’s $10 a month for the privilege to watch their content with ads, and the price is going up again soon.
