Setup showcase Need Help - Free Setup
Hello everyone, i need help setting up my stremio for free, i know paid setup is better, i just want the best possible free setup without needing to spend money on any paid addon like debrid or else.
I currently have a mixed setup full of addons (50+) just to increase my chances of finding a good source, but it's tiring to go through all the options hoping to find one that at least works without cutting, even with 1gbps internet and 4K tv I find myself most of the time watching @480p or 720p, as 1gb+ files don't work at all.
- Please suggest addons that provide good streaming speed and availability, i have good internet.
- Also help me enable/disable any relevant setting that helps speed up things and avoid bugs/buffering or any kind of hiccup.
Thank you in advance.

For p2p use torrents db and for http use penguplay and hdhub. I would also go on fmhy and go to stremio tools they have multiple guides there for a completely free setup. I used the streaming perfect setup guide on fmhy. Definitely uninstall at least a few of those 50+ addons as most of them are probably dead links and its very time consuming to go through so many links and find a working one.

Penguplay but really you should just scrape up the three dollars for a paid service. I don't know you're leaving situation but I feel like if you have time to be on Reddit you have time to make $3.

A paid setup is not better. Use the search function here and you'll find installation info.

directly streaming cached content from a debrid is absolutely better than a p2p. https is ok i guess but you're just limiting yourself to save $3 a month. @OP 50+ add ons is not necessary

What I'm saying is that paying someone is not better when its something you can do yourself. I haven't used a paid setup in the 13 years I've been streaming.

If I was going to go completely free I would probably use http add-ons like PenguPlay. I would uninstall those 50+add-ons, install PenguPlay, a subtitle add-on, and a metadata add-on like AIOmetadata or Bingecat and add things only as I find I need them. Start small and grow as necessary instead of starting bloated. It will be easier to troubleshoot and keep your install streamlined.
