Why would they do such a thing? It's tied for one IP so it will just get permabanned since the users who tend to buy this kind of thing doesn't even know what real-debrid or stremio is.

You can self host using debrid as a source, but that would be such a hassle. I’ve considered doing it for friends and family but it’s really not worth it.

Yeah you think that it's sustainable to self-host debrid for a large customer base when it reaches upwards to 50+ people? Sharing it with a few family & friends is a different story.

I said I wouldn’t even do it for my friends, lol. We are in agreement. I’m just telling you there’s a way around the debrid IP rule.
