What it is: a simple paid setup service for Stremio. You either get a ready made Stremio account
  with everything already configured plus the first thirty days of the streaming helper service I
  connect for you Real Debrid or you book a call where we set it all up together on your devices.

  Who it is for: people who just want to click, sign in, and watch. No forums, no Discord, no hunting
  for add ons or wondering which tutorial to trust. You send them here, they pay once, and they get a
  working setup they can use on their TV, phone, tablet, and computer.

  What you get:

  • A Stremio account that is already configured for everyday use
  • Clear instructions on where to sign in and how to change the password
  • The first thirty days of Real Debrid already connected so streams actually work well
  • Optional one on one call where I guide you live until everything is running

  Business model: one time payment for the account plus thirty days of streaming helper service, and
  a higher tier for people who want a personal call. Basic analytics only, no dark growth tricks.

  I would love feedback from HN on what feels confusing, what sounds risky, and what you would change
  for the crowd that says I do not care how it works, I just want to press play and be done.

What it is: a concise, jargon-free onboarding flow for Stremio. It walks a non-technical person from zero to a working setup in clear, “do this next” steps (with screenshots and troubleshooting). No fluff, no rabbit holes.

Who it’s for: people who want the benefits of Stremio but aren’t comfortable with forums, Discords, or piecing together guides. If you know someone like that, send them here and we’ll get them over the hump.

What’s inside:

Beginner-friendly guide (written like you’d explain it on a call).

Common-failure checks and fixes (subtitle mismatch, wrong source, etc.).

Optional “concierge” help for folks who prefer real-time guidance.

Clear safety notes and boundaries; no grey-area “tips & tricks.”

Business model: paid guide + optional hands-on help. We disclose any affiliate links. No tracking beyond basic analytics. No email wall to view the overview.

I’d love feedback from HN: what’s unclear, what feels risky, what you’d trim, and what you’d add for the “I just want this to work” crowd. Also open to hearing strong objections—better to fix now than later.

i believe that this is rising tide, maybe those who care are minority, but not for long

it comes down to the rights to own the data you produce, and have it easily accesible. Solid is just a way of giving people option to excercise this right

"over the past 20 years" is not the same as next 20 years

Solid idea is more in line with revolution and demand for our representatives to give their people internet that can push the humanity forward, and not just let us waist countless hours on doom scrolling.

that's why we all need to exercise our rights and freedoms. I'm scared that if we fail to do this in next few years. And let the AI be used in similar ways like it has been used to create social media algorithms. Then we are all fucked!

Whoever owns your AI owns you, so it better be you who owns it!

price of intelligence is dropping day by day like it or not, sooner or later price incentives for someone to host such social media experience could become financially viable

also your government, your service providers and many other entities are creating data on your behalf

All other services would read/write from your Pod.

also by having ability to enable/disable access to your data, you have the power of who gets what and for which purpose

also reselling of your data should become illegal to start with, would you be OKAY if your lawyer sells your data? or your colorectal surgeon? off course not, we have laws in place for that, and same laws should be applied to whoever handles your personal data

I, and many like me, would pay for centralised service or any other service if it meant that we own our data and can tune the algorithms to our own preferences. I wont pay for doom scrolling, but would gladly pay for algorithm to serve me content that would better my human experience.

Governments have given corporation to much power, people need to rise up agains that, if it remains the same in AI age, we humans, and our collective mind would erode to the point of no return.

Without proper ways of migrating 'your data' between AI's (platforms), you are in mercy of that assistant without any other alternatives.

Thats why GDPR and CPRA laws are becoming even more important in age of AI assistance.

Technologies like Solid (https://solidproject.org/) are our only way forward. If you don't care you can use your chatgpts or whatever for whatever you want. But there are people who DO CARE about their memories.

We are no longer speaking about tiktok or instagram feeds and algorithms, as some people compare the addictive side of this (ie. OAPulse) kind of technologies to.

the problem is that western civilisation is so far up their asses with capitalism that they think that some corporation cares about them (users).
