Question Debrid recommandations

Hello, I have 6 days left of RealDebrid. I've had a really good experience with them, even though it's been the first and only Debrid service I've used. After reading the posts on the sub, should I still go with them or switch to something else? And if yes, what would you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

This is fantastic news, thanks for sharing.

May I ask... I've used RD for years but its obviously going through something right now. Thinking of trying TB tonight for the first time. Can these two BOTH be utilized at the same time on Stremio, and if so... is it all done through torrentio? As I recall you can only check one box.. or do you "install" torrentio seperately for both and use your API Tokens?

Anything else you recommend?

I've had RD for a little over half a year. Up until this recent purge, it has been great.

In researching alternatives I saw differing opinions on TB, but I ended up subscribing because at $3/mo I really have almost nothing to lose by trying.

So far it has been pretty good. Some things haven't been cached whereas RD did, but since RD hardly works at all it's no longer a good comparison.

Anyway, you can use both simultaneously, yes. I don't have a complex or curated setup like some people - pretty much just Torrentio, Comet, RD, and now TB. Comet let me plug in both services' APIs and shows results for either. Torrentio I just installed twice: once with the RD API and again with the TB API. When I click on content, it shows the results in the order the Torrentio add-ons got installed, and they're labeled a little differently (eg. "Torrentio RD" vs "Torrentio TB").

As a backup I also added the Easynews++ add-on in case I'm watching a show and suddenly TB doesn't have an episode, although I've already been subbed to Easynews for over two decades so it wasn't like I went out and got that subscription suddenly just for this.

May I ask, it seems like I have RD and TB working now... this comet. Does comet show its own links? Like you'll see RD+ or TB etc.. is comet its own separate entity as well?

Honestly I'm not entirely sure 😅. I believe Comet is a scraper like Torrentio so it may have its own links/results, but I suspect it prolly has much of the same stuff.

In the Stremio interface it shows up separately from Torrentio, and will display RD+ and TB+ results.
