I’ve always felt like the whole docker/jellyfin/plex/loads-of-other-apps stuff is way too overboard just to do a bit of pirating, so I usually just hop on one of the movie/show or anime streaming sites with uBlock Origin installed and watch that way.
Currently I’m looking at what I can setup in the living room, and was thinking of just using an old PC with a wireless keyboard. I would like to use a media center type interface, but I’ve never actually used Kodi before. Would I be able to just use Kodi to stream from those kinds of services?
Searches so far show that everyone apparently uses Kodi with something called Real Debrid, which I have zero interest in.
As someone who used the streaming plugins of the early '00s I’d say you’re better off running your own media server. As others have said they always broke and you’d have no way of knowing if and when they’d be fixed.
