And before you say i have read the megathread atleast as much as i can because it feels too buzzwordy for me and i think it is more suitable with people with a little more experience than for litteral noobs also i want to leaen how to in android and not a pc and the megathread leans heavily into pc .

To be clear i am not asking you to hold my hand through everything you can link things as answers these are the question i have tried to look up and haven't found answers to yet. If there are no answers for my weird questions you can flat out say it or if my post is not in the correct /c/ i'll be more than happy to remove it. I I used to use telegram which was easy but i did'nt appreciate the telegram owners ethics and the people there are toxic. And then i tried paying and bolted after the date of my payment ran out as the experience was NOT ideal.

Is there any app that can replace telegram where you can just find files and install it ? I am asking about movies and series and is not interested in anything else.

I have tried downloading from streaming sites and you know like bflix but that sucks am i doing it wrong ?

Can i use browser for doenloading or is another client needed ? I can download as much tool as you'd recommend as long as it is from fdroid main repo don't suggest anything else i just can't (i know that seems lazy but it is the truth). Also if i am not concerned about ISP should i still use vpn like does it go in my permanent internet record that i torrented a movie or something lol ? I know everything on internet does but is a torrenting record that bad ?

EDIT 1: > Also i want small file forsize movies and series meaning 800mb is alright for a 1hr and 45 minute movie . Like is there any websites that supoly 720p hevc 10 bit kinda formats ?

EDIT 2: Also if you can explain or link some source on how to use the software u suggest that would be helpful.

EDIT 3 : I use fennec with ublock is that goid enough some one suggested it was and if it is that will save me hella lot of trouble.

Will add questions as i remember. Currently i am reading some articles which kinda don't help me at all . Also i know there is an issue about discussing these things on the /c/ so if you want you can dm me the answers. I don't know why i didn't get into this sooner but please remember to be kind to the noob as all of you once were noobs.

Edit : Sorry for the spelling and grammer english is my second lang.

EDIT : Even though i may not have replied to each and every suggestion i do appreciate them and will try out one by one thanks to everyone who bothered to help.

then you should not be pursing this

limiting yourself to android means you arent technically capable of what you want to achieve.

Uh my pc crapped out bro i only have android for now

bummer. But, it sounds like you have time while you search for a real computer to learn about the shit you need.

you only need a shitty, old piece of crap computer someone tossed. it does not have to be performative. install linux, and you can achieve your goals. a 15 year old retail pc is more capable than a new phone with regards to the tasks you are attempting.

phones are crippled with regards to memory and core use because they are not general purpose devices. they are phones.

Nah the only thing i miss out without pc is when i need to mess with the phone software itself like flashing rom. Also i think we have long them just being "phones" and they are more just pocket computers since we barely 'phone' anymore and with everyone adpting the arm structure more they will only grow more compactible and mainstream. But yeah currently i am broke but saving up to buy a system 76 or thinkpad soon.

As i said yours and my use cases vary very much and i did agree that proffesionals or people like you who hosts instances will need that i am just talking from my perspective in which i don't need a PC that much to take a loan out and by tied to debt. And yes arm still lacks atleast for now but i am guessing it will be the future for several reasons
