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?

Protip - If you like scrolling for inspiration on what to download, check out JustWatch. It's a site with clean UI that catalogues shoes across streaming platforms.

No piracy, you do that yourself with Plex and the *Arr.

The URL provided was missing the https:// portion. Here's a working link.

Oops, thanks for the heads up, fixed on my end.

Mate, https is a very important security and privacy feature. Use a modern browser like Firefox to ensure you are surfing with https always

The only one here answer the question about looking for content. The rest are great (plex + *arr stack myself) but it didn't solve the issue of WHAT media to add to plex/kodi/stremio/etc.

Need to be an *arr or another program we can docker to basically be Just Watch with a click and torrent search.

Jellyseer does just that. You browse popular media and click request and the torrent stuff is handled by the *arr's

Overseerr is the “*arr” you’re looking for.

This is the answer to the actual question. JustWatch to scroll for shows and piracy to watch them. Came to say it if no one had and scrolled way too far to find it.

Similarly, ReelGood is another real good option. But there are many sites where you can track what you watch and get suggestions on what to watch next.
