I honestly don't care about the legality. Plus I come from a country where we have way bigger issues to deal with than piracy.

All I care about is coming up with ways to make sure my friends watch some of the stuff I recommend to them. Best way is still going "hey, check out this cool new show. Yes it's on saltyflix"

that is exactly where i am at as well, battling with absurdly high inflation is already hard enough i can't pay for bajillion different streaming services or non indie games

I’m living in one of those countries. I still use a vpn, but I don’t anyone here does besides me.

But the way I look at it is, the people so make these things are also so rich out at least have higher incomes than I do by a significant amount.

Why are you asking me for money? Don’t you have enough?
