Yes, it is paid. I recently signed up for the 30 day play as a test drive and see if it made sense to me... And it really is game changing.

Torrent may be enough most of the time, but Stremio has a serious problem about speed, I don't know why. I enabled the "ultra fast" settings in the menu, but I can't get the same speed I'd get downloading the same torrent through any torrent client.

It made it impossible to watch 4gb movies, for example, I was basically stuck with lower quality 1-2gb ones.

Real debrid changed that. I watched a 17gb one the other day just fine.

If some movie isn't available through RD, you can signal RD to download it and it will be available to you (and others) a bit later as well, but I haven't really needed it so far.

Yep, went to see Beau is Afraid discussion on Reddit through Google and the thread wasn't opening. Was wondering if something was wrong with /r/movies. Turns out it was Joey.

RIP. Greatest Reddit app.

A coworker once said he was a content reviewer for YouTube for some time. He received in dollar in a 3rd world country and said it was a pretty easy job to do, aside from being full WFH. Certainly not the worst job out there.

Repeat above for the use of "nazi". The use of the word has become devalued because people like to fling it at folks with milquetoast centrist opinions, save it for people who are legitimately evil.

Yup, I said the same thing to people around me, when the use of the word "fascist" became a thing in my country. Even clearly moderate opponents were being called fascists left and right. I told people around me that the word would lose its meaning and power. That's exactly what happened, and when an actual fascist came up, you had nothing against him and its supporters transformed the term into a joke.

Even all/hot or active or whatever, really.

The main reason I stopped looking at all. Nothing against NSFW, but I want it when I'm expressly in the mood. I was finding myself masturbating more because of this shit.

Its ability to search for communities and subscribe to communities outside your instance is wonderful. I don't know if other apps are already doing that as well, but it certainly helps and makes it easier for newcomers.

When is it coming to Android?

[-] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Do they want to, tho? My suspicion is that they might not be very open to it.

Lemmy.world or bust

On Liftoff, you can. Just click the instance anywhere or add it to make its own feed.

That's great to see. They are expecting a huge influx of users and are working towards having things prepared.

I anticipate a lot of client apps will be ready by then as well, in order to promote themselves and Lemmy/kbin.
