Hello guys, I’m curious about this meme, is there some literature where I can find someguides to test this? Thanks.

You wouldn’t pay for 4k Netflix and then download a Chromebook recovery image in order to extract the aarch64 widevine com blobs and then patch in support for 16k pages and then apply miscellaneous glibc compat workarounds and then spoof your useragent, and install a browser extension to unlock HD resolutions, to legally watch media in only 1080p

Eh, it’s different. I like that I can choose individual streams for different quality. I watch at 720p on my old TV with crappy WiFi, or 4K on my desktop. Anything mainstream enough to be on a streaming platform will already be loaded, it’s just obscure stuff you might need to add yourself, which you’d never get on Netflix anyway.

We usually watch shows in Stremio even if they’re on Netflix.

Okay, but I can pretty much guarantee my mom couldn’t figure out how to set that up.

But she can get Disney+ going no problem.

Yeah, fair. The setup is a bit technical for sure. You can set it up to default to different settings, though, so it would probably work well if the defaults are set correctly.

Like, my crappy old laptop can only handle H264s, not H265, but you can select video codec as a default. At least, I’m pretty sure you can.

My kids can manage it, and they’re only 6 & 8.
