It used to be that simple: r/plexshares, click any link, join the server, watch all you want.

Well, they really cracked down on that. Plex purged the servers en masse, my server switched to some obscure emby, r/plexshares is closed for good.

I'm in a need of a new server. Where do I even go? What platform is best to sail the seas now? Jellyfin?

P.S. my torrent days are over, thanks. I'm not interested in self-hosting anything either, again, thanks. 10$/month is a reasonable subscription fee for an all-you-can-eat streaming service

Pay for Netflix or whatever if you want ease of usage

Piracy isn't supposed to be easy nor should it be spoonfed to you

Shitty and limited catalog, Stremio with RD FTW.

I'd pay for Netflix if they stopped removing and geolocking content. As it is, I can legally acquire half of the content I want to watch. In order to get all of it, I need a vpn to the default country a valid default country credit card, and a subscription to 5 services. I'll rather set up a seedbox with jellyfin than play their dumb games. But why wouldn't I pay someone to just do it for many of us instead? This labor scales very well.

Be the change you want to see

Yeah, exactly. My options are roughly: I find a working server, or make my own with blackjack and hookers. And give my friends a free invite.
