GitHub reinstates Popcorn Time code

I usually use https://www.justwatch.com/ca/new to find what service a movie is on. US: https://www.justwatch.com/us/new and other countries are linked on their homepage at the bottom. Some minor Stylish/uBlock rules:

    .consent-banner { display: none; }
    ion-tab[tab="new"] .content-header { display: none; }
    ion-tab[tab="popular"] .content-header { display: none; }

Anyone know where such websites get their data? I'm looking for an API for Netflix that would let me list all movies that have specific subtitles available. Netflix.com/browse/subtitles only shows a limited amount of movies.

Netflix closed their API some years ago. Only a few grandfathered sites still have access.

eg. I use instantwatcher.com

They maintain scrapers/indexers undoubtedly. In the absence of an API, you can scrape the aggregators yourself.

Off topic from main thread, but how do you use those style rules in uBlock? I've tried looking but I can't find anything for rules like that.

Not OP, but open the uBlock Origin Dashboard and put them in the section for rules.

uBlock Origin is not the same as uBlock. I prefer Origin.

You can create rules to hide something by right-clicking on the page and choosing 'Block an element', or by adding a rule like justwatch.com##.consent-banner in your filter parameters.
