@werwolf @chaitanya Jellyfin too.
@chaitanya all these and Curiosity Stream, Crunchyroll, as well as my Plex server :D
@chaitanya I try to go to origin/network sites. For comedy central (ca) shows I visit much.com, or I visit the personal site of a YouTube creator, instead of the multiple reposts of the same video. I hope that the advert $ for content on their sites gets closer to the artists.
@chaitanya Pluto TV, mostly to watch Classic Doctor Who.
@chaitanya jellyfin
@chaitanya self-hosted jellyfin & mubi.com for me.
@schrofi @chaitanya Self-hosted #Jellyfin & #Mubi is a goooood combo.
Right now I have #Netflix, #HBONordic and torrents for everything else.

French/German TV channel #arte has some of the best documentaries with subtitles for English and other languages too:

They also make most of them available to watch on YT here:

▩ None
YouTube
I also have Nebula subscription to directly support few of the YouTubers I watch.
@chaitanya
@chaitanya Anything that doesn't require running proprietary software or identifying myself.
(I have some ideas for making such platforms)
@chaitanya nebula and curiosity stream
@chaitanya TPB - I'd never even heard of the second choice there actually.
Not technically 'streaming' as such, but if you tell bittorrent to d/l the S01E01 first and E02 2nd and so on, it becomes one in practice.
@chaitanya None, I don't stream anything.
@chaitanya In reality we flit between streaming services depending on what they offer at the time. We’re Plowright through Disney+ at the minute, but also watch iPlayer and use Plex for downloaded stuff.
@chaitanya Oh, and Apple TV+ - but only because it’s bundled in with other Apple stuff that I pay for.
@chaitanya Stan and iView (Australia)
@chaitanya
Mostly via Plex, but content from all the sources above plus Peacock/NBC, CBSAllAccess for Star Trek Discovery, and HBO Max. Plus a bunch of channels that aren't part of any consistent online service yet.
@chaitanya
Also use catchup services for UK TV channels. iPlayer, All4 etc...
@chaitanya None, I don't stream or watch TV
@chaitanya
Mubi
@chaitanya CBS/paramount, HBO
@chaitanya none. Self hosted Jellyfin.
