I get this almost daily, my whole family and several friends know I’m good at recommending things to them so they always go to me to ask what to watch. I’ve had to start looking up and writing down where each movie and show is available “normally”. I have no issue saying I get everything via other means but whem it became a thing where people started asking “can you also look up where it’s available” just because it’s not always easy to figure that out and they knew I didn’t know and generally find it quicker than them.
I just respond with a hearty “yeeearghhhh!” and continue the conversation. The coworkers that know get it, the rest think I’m a lunatic.
it’s on ploob
yes that is what I was referencing
Oh… well then you spelled your made up parody word wrong :/
I did not, it was a dual-reference.
Oh, ok. Whats the other reference too?
Great, now I’ll never not notice how many brand names are baby sounds
If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.
If someone is aware of piracy and doesn’t care: “I don’t really know, I just got it off of a torrent site.”
If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don’t work for: You can ignore them.
Do you know of any easily shareable beginner’s guides?
I love turning friends onto free media, but I don’t always want to walk them through it.
fmhy.pages.dev/beginners-guide/
fmhy.net also hosts the same guides I believe
Not really beginner friendly because it doesn’t teach you much but the site has a nice list of resources that goes even boyond piracy: https://fmhy.net/beginners-guide
I appreciate it!
You could share this sublemmy’s pinned post, or the megathread it links to:
On the open meadows of the freeinternet,
where the gentle breeze touches all equally,
where the people are friends,
and the money is spent on FOSS devs & smol gaming studios.I just honestly answer that I don’t know.
