    It’s 2024 man, tormenting a movie takes about 10 minutes and then you neither have to worry about ads nor connectivity for the rest of the movie

      I’m gonna be honest, I’ve tried torrenting before and maybe I’m just an idiot (most likely), but I’ve never been good at figuring out which fuckin button is the actual download button and I’m tired of ghosting my pc

        If you set up qbittorrent with the built-in search you can torrent stuff without ever opening your browser

        Sounds like 90% of your problem is ads then. Or going to shitty sites. Get on a decent tracker - even the good old one - and have an adblocker installed

          Don’t listen to this guy. He exists to overcomplicate things because he’s just trying to fit in with other losers.

          Download an adblocker. Stop using ‘smart’ features. Hook your computer up to your TV and get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo.

          This isn’t difficult, or complicated.

            What part of my post was complicated? I quite literally said 90% of his problem is ads…

            I’m really sorry that you lack the curiosity or confidence to figure out installing qbittorrent and, uh, clicking a link, but I need you to understand that “hook your computer up to your TV and get a wireless keyboard and mouse combo” is going to be more complicated and finicky for most people. Particularly people with kids who don’t want a computer just sitting awkwardly in their living room.
