Thank you, I might create a list that does not include software as it has been covered a lot.
I would love this. Not only would it be great to have a central point but often times their search is bad. Even intentionally so. Like crunchyroll makes it impossible to see whats available to a free account. You end up having to roam around until you get frusted and realize plex, freevee, pluto, tubi, roku, etc has a pretty good selection with less runaround.
That's intended. They want you to run into paid shows you might be interested in---while tech-savvy folks will realize they have better options, the average free customer will keep running into stuff they would want to watch but can't because they don't have a sub, until they cave in. If these services had a easy free-to-watch list, most of those people wouldn't even spare a glance to the paid servings, as they could just entirely avoid them.
oh im aware. expecting me to cave is not a good bet though. there are two options. they can have my eyeballs for the ads which I accept for it being free or their competitor gets it. if they all go away I will visit the library more often. they will never. ever. get a drop from me.
Most of fmhy is free stuff.
We need RFMHY
Github is full of lists of things. There are even several lists of "awesome lists". Far more than I can list here, and it starts to get painfully recursive (an awesome list of awesome lists of awesome lists?). Just search for "awesome list" on github; some live outside of github, so you could search for "awesome list" in Ecosia, or DDG, or whatever you use.
If you are looking for software you might want to look for websites that list open source projects.
I can't really think of decent mega lists though. The FMHY one does have a lot of simply free things but it is mixed in with a lot of pirated content.
This might be helpul:
Thank you, it's focused on art I might be able to find some good resources there.
