  • Yes, it is paid. I recently signed up for the 30 day play as a test drive and see if it made sense to me… And it really is game changing.

    Torrent may be enough most of the time, but Stremio has a serious problem about speed, I don’t know why. I enabled the “ultra fast” settings in the menu, but I can’t get the same speed I’d get downloading the same torrent through any torrent client.

    It made it impossible to watch 4gb movies, for example, I was basically stuck with lower quality 1-2gb ones.

    Real debrid changed that. I watched a 17gb one the other day just fine.

    If some movie isn’t available through RD, you can signal RD to download it and it will be available to you (and others) a bit later as well, but I haven’t really needed it so far.






  • Repeat above for the use of “nazi”. The use of the word has become devalued because people like to fling it at folks with milquetoast centrist opinions, save it for people who are legitimately evil.

    Yup, I said the same thing to people around me, when the use of the word “fascist” became a thing in my country. Even clearly moderate opponents were being called fascists left and right. I told people around me that the word would lose its meaning and power. That’s exactly what happened, and when an actual fascist came up, you had nothing against him and its supporters transformed the term into a joke.


  • The first one already happens, no? Before the last few updates, if you opened a link to a community that “via” another instance, you were kinda screwed. You could see it as a “guest”, but not interact to it. In the recent updates, if you try to interact with it, it will open a popup to ask if you wanna open it in one of the instances you have an account.

    Dunno if I misunderstood your point, tho.

    The second one is kinda hard, because images already put a lot of pressure on instances storage-wise. Videos would be even more, and not only much more storage needed, but also throughput. I don’t really see it happening any time soon, not really because of the apps, but because of the platform itself and its federated nature.
