Pirate Netflix (discuss.tchncs.de)

With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.

So I am wondering if it's possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?

Funnily enough this is what I absolutely loved about using my google tv with chrome cast - content discovery. Others called it “ads” but when I’m looking for things to watch I fail to see how suggestions for what to watch based on my viewing history is a bad thing.

Plex is slowly getting better at it, but I really wish Overseerr was integrated into it.

This is what’s stopping me from using another launcher on my chromecast. I get the disdain for ads in the community, but it absolutely has its uses. Browsing is a huge part of consuming content. This is why I use stremio over some of the more attractive options because they at least have what’s popular, even if it’s not as heavily curated as the streaming services.
