Do you get ads in the subtitles though?
"Subtitles downloaded by VIP members are free from any embedded ads, offering a cleaner viewing experience."
I haven't used opensubtitles much but have been considering setting up bazarr, using a source that embeds ads in subtitles would be a non starter for me.
I would even be totally willing to pay for increased download limits but not if it means supporting putting ads in the free subtitles.
I use bazarr in combination with a vip membership of opensubtitles. I've been doing this for years since they have been adding ads in them for multiple years. Messages like "This subtitle was downloaded from" are also removed.
