  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

Incidentally, there's a really reliable website called hydrahd.ru which you should not go to because that would be piracy and taking money from corporations like Netflix is wrong. You definitely shouldn't install uBlock Origin in your browser and then go to that website and watch whatever you want with subtitles too if you need them.

I canceled my Netflix subscription seven years ago and never looked back. It just didn't provide value for the price, and it has only gotten worse.

Yeh, same goes for stremio app, don't go there cause torrenting is bad and you would get absolutely every content on one platform for free and that would be illegal
