Thanks to MPAA taking out popcorn in the last couple of days, I discovered in the HN post the next big and marvellous torrent thing : https://www.stremio.com/

Its like PT on steroids with add-ons.

The only caveat is taking 5 additional minutes to install add-ons (TPB+ can be your first choice to get you going)

There is one that list IMDB TOP 250, in order, ready to stream

I have Netflix and Disney+ just to buy moral credit; but since ~1y torrent at will again. Thank you MPAA for enlightening me

Read their TOS, It's really quite.... Iffy.

When you decided you don't give a damn, the Torrentio plugin is where It's at, scrapes way many public trackers.

Actually it seems like this has changed since last I checked it.

"IMPORTANT: We do not collect any history or logs of what addons/sources you use for streaming! Furthermore, if you login as a Guest User, no personal data will be collected whatsoever." - https://web.archive.org/web/20200514142904/https://www.strem... (Their own privacy page doesn't load for me)

That clause has not always been there.
