Stremio is a parasite. They are “legal” because the app itself doesn’t contain anything illegal, you have to add the plugins on the side. It is just awful because it just leeches from torrents and don’t seed anything.
We’re just self hosting our stuff and using Jellyseer, it’s convenient and we can just forget stuff seeding as long as we can
People that really want convenience just pay for streaming services. Stremio has a shitty transferrate and even with 1GB internet you aren’t able to watch anything 4k, for example.
I can’t relate with the complait about setting up jellyfin/VPN, that’s something you only need to do once. Theorically Stremio would also need a VPN because it is getting it from a torrent, no? Just get stuff you need in advance and you won’t have to wait and will get to watch something HQ if you have the setup to do so.
I also don’t know/care about debrid so I can’t comment on it. Isn’t it direct download?
Well glory to the private trackers, I guess. You need to have people seeding for torrents to work. I really believe this might kill public trackers if it gets too popular.
I don’t disagree with you, but we all forget that the medium user isn’t tech savvy like all of us and it is the main reason they get predated upon by big tech.
Considering how SO is killing itself rather quickly, it would be interesting to have a platform with similar structure but taking users interests instead of profit of executives. I am not saying their system is perfect, I have made a post in the past on their meta community regarding how hard it is for new contributors to start....
Note for Americans: here WhatsApp is the de facto communication standard. Literally nobody uses SMS/iMessage/Facebook messenger/signal. And carriers still charge 2 euro for a MMS which completely kills iMessage/RCS (if accidentally send MMS, it’s expensive)...
Many replies in this thread saying that landlords aren’t the problem: If you own more than one property with the purpose of renting or flipping you are part of the problem. Why the need to sugarcoat this? You shouldn’t be paying anyone’s morgage with your rent, this is ridiculous.
In the perfect world where you can convince your company to use anything other than MS Teams and that your family bothers to use anything that isn’t WhatsApp or Telegram. Unfortunately I don’t live on it 😭
I hate that all the new buildings where I live have gas stoves. I really want electric induction to take over, I don’t understand how it is okay to build something that uses literal fire considering everything here in north america is built using wood. It’s crazy.
Unfortunately that doesn’t apply when you are on your work computer and need to connect to your environment which is behind a corporate VPN. Thanks for telling me about code-server though, I’ll check that definitely!

Is Stremio a honeypot?
Does anybody have the impression that Stremio may be a honeypot of some sort?...
Which is your default sort for posts on Lemmy?
I’ve used “hot” for a long while but recently changed to “active”. I honestly can’t say the difference between them.
Is there a federated/non-profit alternative to Stack Overflow?
