Hello guys, I’m curious about this meme, is there some literature where I can find someguides to test this? Thanks.

You wouldn’t pay for 4k Netflix and then download a Chromebook recovery image in order to extract the aarch64 widevine com blobs and then patch in support for 16k pages and then apply miscellaneous glibc compat workarounds and then spoof your useragent, and install a browser extension to unlock HD resolutions, to legally watch media in only 1080p

    Every single “service” out there is more difficult than Stremio. Exception might be non-english content

      In concept. Every single time I’ve tried to use it I’ve had issues. The movies stop constantly, files become unreachable for some indiscernible reason preventing me from continuing from the same source, the app bugs out like crazy, some things aren’t all that easy to find, the quality isn’t always great or there’s weird stuff like embedded subtitles or watermarks.

        I genuinely thought it was just me but yeah this has always been the case for me. Neat concept but I think that living in the middle of nowhere with crappy internet makes it impossible to use for me.

      So I just install the app, sign up, and I can start watching whatever?

        You’ll need to install the torrentio add-on.

        You should use a VPN, but it will work without one.

        You can use a debrid provider and remove the other stremio addons you don’t use. I’ve never bothered, and to be honest I don’t even really understand what debrid is.

            Marginally maybe? Installing an add-on in torrentio doesn’t take more than a second, but it isn’t a process most people are already familiar with, like entering credit card details to open an account.

      except Ukrainian for some reason. I’ve had a lot of issues with english, polish and russian content, but Cloudstream3 with cloudstreak-extensions-uk never ever stopped working and has all of the content i care for, with high quality dubs from either the source or local tv channels (both sound as good as the og English va)
