stremio + real-debrid
Real debrid is currently complying with a legal crackdown and is applying a filter that prevents access to their cached torrents if the title includes a bunch of different common piracy phrases, such as Web, WebDL, the names of common trackers, etc.
Might eventually ease up, might not. Worth it to ride it out for a bit and see what happens if you're already subbed as some results still play, but for anyone new looking into stremio/kodi/jellyfin you should probably consider something like an easynews + torbox combo
For the moment... Better go with all-debrid instead. And easynews. Plenty of combi deals with a VPN (privadovpn, with proxy support)
I see real-debrid recommended a lot, but shouldn't Torrent-based Stremio setup (opposed tothan a usenet/debrid setup) be better and with more content?
Torrents are dead
