Hosting my own with jellyfin has honestly changed my consumption of media.

Nebula.tv because there is an option for no monthly subscription at the moment

[โ€“] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I tried it two times but the Apple TV app was always buggy as hell.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The Android TV app isn't great either. I just cast to the TV from the mobile app, which is still slightly buggy but generally works fine.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean... it seems like Apple is probably the problem here.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why? Other apps get it right.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apple is pretty notorious for building hard to comply with arbitrary rules for their walled gardens. When it comes to the app store they won't tell you why an app was rejected even if you follow all published rules... there are other rules they just don't tell us about.

When it comes to developers Apple is a real shit-heel company.

That's 1. bullshit and 2. not an excuse to keep apps buggy.

Stremio +Torrentio + a Debrid service. Cheap, reliable, and has almost everything we've searched for.

YouTube premium.

I've got 8 subscriptions, the one I use most frequently is (outside of patreon for podcasts, and even then on a slow podcast week ala holidays) YouTube, probably more than all the others combined.

Task master, Qi, Richard osmands house of games, lcs, you suck at cooking, epicurious, binging with babish, 3 Mario Maker creators, 3 general video game streams, 3 video game speed running/charity streams, science communicators, language learning, and I haven't seen an ad in.... Shit... 8 years, (except when I YouTube on a work machine, or the two times I've gotten a new phone)

Onhockey.tv

All the hockey.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I love onhockey because it has multiple leagues. However, on iOS devices the ads/popups are horrible to deal with (even with brave), so I'll use nhlbite.com when needed. I don't know of another site like onhockey that has all leagues.

There's also nhl66.ir that provides great quality streams, but you need a VPN to watch now. nhl66 also does not work on iOS anymore. Works fine on Android.

I used to love Deezer. Better sound quality and user interface than spotify. Then they removed regional pricing and it went up 5x in my region.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Deezer nuts hahahaha got ya

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Overall, YouTube for sheer variety and quantity.

But among the traditional services probably Hulu.
