So much setup when you can just visit a website and watch shows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    In like 144p with ads. Obviously I kid with that above setup that zoomers (and I) love, you can just torrent with qbittorrent and watch in VLC like long before video streaming. Ez pz.

    Imagine being on a piracy related instance and not using an ad blocker, or thinking that illegal online streams are 144p.

    Huh? I use ublock origin, sponsorblock, privacy badger, etc etc. but that's for browsing the web and YT. Not watching movies and TV shows which is what torrenting is for. I'm from a piracy instance and that's precisely why I know to do that rather than watch some dodgy "illegal online streams" site?

    LMAO, I use adblockers and even braflix (rip) provided content in HD. Also everyone can't have infinite bandwith and storage.

    Also, opening website on Firefox with Adblock is much faster than torrenting.
