Is anybody else having trouble with Stremio over the last few days? Everything was smooth until after the weekend. Now it will barely play anything without kicking me out or crashing - external player or not.

It seems like there is a connection error, maybe?

I will mention I did renew the real debrid subscription which seems fishy - I used to use TorrentioRD+ but it doesn't recognise my subscription so I can only use Torrentio.

Any advice would be great because the internet is kinda useless.

Stremio has been getting buggier and buggier for months now, I stopped using it, pretty sure it's being vibe coded or something as I can't imagine any other way of introducing so many issues.

They added some cloudflare stuff, which broke things on my always on vpn. Why would i use my normal connection to torrent? Why add cloudflare protection when most people are going to be using vpns? Its stupid decision honestly.

Anyways, last i used it was like a month ago. I deleted the app afterwards.

Probably not a stremio app issue but addon issue. I've read a lot that Torrentio is known to be buggy from time to time. I don't watch english stuff so can't really recommand addons but you need to try another one. If i remember, there is one called Comet but they are others available.

Torrentio is much more reliable with Real-Debrid than without; did you get your API key from Real-Debrid and add it while configuring Torrentio?

Even still, Torrentio can at times be unreliable, as other free debrid indexers can also be. An alternate option to use alongside or instead of Torrentio is the paid Debridio service ($10 a year).
