It's getting impossible to watch a specific show as an English learner (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Sites with closed captions are a challenge to find; I've managed for a bit, and I found great ones.

However, now I'm trying to watch a show called Tokyo Vice where open subtitles aren't working, and I have to find Nova ones.

However, sites that have them don't work 99% of the time for this show; I've tried hundreds.

The frustration of not being able to watch a show and chill before bed is huge; this show I quoted isn't even available in my country.

So yeah... This was my rant.

Stremio has it from all the typical release groups with an array of subtitle options, so it should be readily available as a torrent as well.

    I only watch an episode every 1-2 days, and I don't consider a paid VPN worth for torrent this little, neither I wanna torrent without one in this age.

    After like 3-4 nights I spent trying different sites rather than watching, I'm considering just going without closed captions even if I don't understand everything.

    Totally sucks if you ask me, it's getting a challenge to be a pirate lately

    Is learning a language and enjoyment of your show not worth $1-2 a month? How are these dodgy sites safer to rawdog than Usenet or torrents?

    Some players can shift timing of the subtitles. Then you can just adjust timing of any subtitles with correct framerate. You can even adjust the framerate. Once you learn how to do it, it's fast and simple.
