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

At the moment your service becomes even marginally more difficult than piracy, yo ho yo ho. What am I paying you for?

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.
