To be clear, this is just a joke, and I don’t look down on direct downloading. It absolutely has its place, and sometimes I do it myself if it’s just faster to download a file directly. Torrenting is just so much more convenient, though, especially when using Jackett’s manual search.

    Finally, someone speaking sense on a piracy community. So many people around these communities constantly push the .arr suite without ever mentioning that it just isn’t worth the time or resources to set up for a single individual watching on their personal computer lol. It honestly gets really grating after a while. It’s like you said, these programs are best utilized by media collectors and people serving media to groups of users, like a family. For most average users, Stremio with the Torrentio plug-in is all they need.
