Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

That's not what I meant though. Before, you didn't have to log in even with a guest account to just observe. The page loaded and the video+chat were already going. Maybe that technically counts as being on a guest account, I don't know, but while just observing you couldn't participate in the chat until you entered in a guest name, which is what I would expect would constitute a guest account.
It was nice to be able just to load the page and see what was going on without having to log in or have your presence registered at all, though obviously also not having the ability to interact in any way, even as a guest. But I see that that is gone now too. I am constantly losing my connection with the shitty barely functional internet access I have, and "QuietCupcake has joined" showing in the chat window every 2 minutes was annoying as hell for me and presumably at least slightly for everyone else too. This sucks and seems like overkill, but whatever.
