As a norwegian who is back to pirating after a break of around 10-12 years, it is not primarily a cost issue. Hell with hardware investments it is costing me more tho that includes stuff for gaming (roms, i currently dont pirate pc games).

What it is is a service issue. Self curated collection of movies and shows beats the fragmented shit that is current streaming platforms not to mention the flood of utter garbage on tgese platforms you have to sift thru to find somethinf worth watching. Not to mention the privacy aspects and in general the “ownership” model (ie licensing without really knowing the terms).

Fuck that shit and im never getting fooled again.

ah very nice, the sidebar is not visible by default on jerboa and i forgot to check this. great resource!

Yea need to rewire my mindset there, but this is a recurring rec so i think it is one i definitely must heed!

Thats a fun idea! If i knew about this before it would have been cool to do it in parallel from the start. I think i at the very least will definitely aim to go through LD again after having seen through 90s stuff if i ever get that far to pick up on the references!
