Not loving arte is an immediate red flag, imo. They’re one of the few reasons I have no problem in the slightest paying my GEZ.

I love it simply because it's the near enough closest incarnation we have these day of this quote:

We are going to use this organisation to change the way the rest of the country thinks. We want them to see stuff they don't like. We don't really care if they complain.

• Hugh Greene, first director general of the NWDR (later NDR and WDR), and later the BBC

Would be nice to see more people take this attitude in this day and age.

Currently watching Twin Peaks for the first time thanks to Arte

I just miss the english subtitles because I don't always understand what they are saying

And you don't even need an account to watch stuff? Amazing.

Arte is available free on some streaming boxes even in countries where it's not broadcast freely.

Arte is great (although I think it would help if there is more subtitle languages available, sometimes at all. Can’t make my kids very happy yet with the current available programs.

Arte is full of surprises, and there are dozens of apps for it. I use the Kodi plugin on my rpi and it also works with yt-dlp.

I tried the site; it must not like Firefox. But I grabbed the app! I love the variety, I'm overwhelmed with choices. Thank you for the heads up, I appreciate ways of broadening my horizons

Just grabbed the android app.

Is there a way to turn off subtitles? They have been forced on all three things I've watched so far. It's very annoying.

Newcomers on arte, look for Tracks, some are really fun

thanks ive never heard of it and its now playing
