I will add that if you want free streaming, then TorrentsDB works better than Torrentio.

But if you’re paying for a debrid service like Torbox, then it might be redundant to have TorrentsDB and it could clutter up your Stremio UI.

From some of the setups I’ve seen out there, people’s optimal method is to have AIOStreams add-on in Stremio, then configure AIOStreams with the Debrid Service and their chosen filters. It’s supposed to lead to a cleaner and more responsive Stremio UI.

Oh! A piracy security clearance! Is that like a letter of marque?

I’ve only used it as an add-on with Stremio tbh.

There are probably better options for self-hosting than it.

Torrentio has been restricted depending on the country that you’re VPN-ing from. Even without a debrid, just VPN, torrentio on stremio was rarely working.

Ended up using TorrentsDB, a torrentio alternative add-on that uses the same scraped data as torrentio but was more readily available.

I don’t know why you’re facing those issues with TorBox. I signed up with a VPN on and no issues. People tend to prefer TorBox specifically because they don’t care about your IP address and they accept multiple accesses to the same login. Are you using a bank card for payment?

Worst case, try signing up for TorBox from a public wifi or similar.

Also with TorBox, they’re pretty private already and you don’t necessarily have to use a VPN. But you still can if that’s what you want.
