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?

Omby+Emby+Sonarr+Radarr+BitTorrent= Best Streaming Service

Streamio is the best option in my experience, especially if you don't want to download whole shows and keep them in a server

Basically Plex. Throw in sonarr, radarr, and overseerr for automating the content acquisition.

I highly recommend cloudstream. Join their discord or dm me for the set up if you dont know how to or stuck. It works on android and android tvs (sticks, boxs or tv itslef). Its also available on windows 11 and 10 via the android system that it introduced recently. The Ui is very nice and there is a plugin that works most of the times with 1080p and 4k if lucky. It also displays the newest and trendiest content from all platforms.

I've found Plex to be the best option. Available on Samsung, too.

Plex has this, but not sure if you have to have an active account signed in for the other streaming services or not.

No there's nothing like this. You'll still have to search and download stuff before watching it.

You can have your setup auto download lists and try to mimic things. But you'll never be able to have the mindless scrolling like Netflix. Don't let anyone convince you there's a solution out there currently.

You forgot about Stremio. It's exactly what OP is looking for. Every show and movie from every streaming platform, all in one place.

A lot of people recommend Plex, which I'm sure is great, but if you want an actual Netflix GUI, Titan Bingie Mod for Kodi is the way to go. From what I understand about Plex, Titan Bingie on Kodi provides all of the same features.
