  No matter how bad someone might think Jellyfin is, it is a million times better than subjecting yourself to endless ad slop on one of these ““free movies”” websites.

      I know about adblockers but these websites are still usually ass even with them.

      I don’t mind battling them for something like an F1 livestream but when you want your own collection of stuff that won’t get randomly shit on by domain seizures or ISP blocking, there’s a reason I’m self hosting my media.

        That’s fair. I think a hybrid solution of owning/streaming is best.

        Free streaming sites are the easiest way to watch something and we should be recommending them more often.

    You should have an adblocker like ublock origin or Adnauseam installed.

        You may have to go through the uBlock Origin settings and add/update all the blocklists.
