I never did it. How can I do it? And where I need to go for it?

Step 1: download the free ProtonVPN app; https://protonvpn.com/download

Step 2: download the free qbittorrent app; https://www.qbittorrent.org/

Step 3: download vlc media player; https://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Step 4: install and connect ProtonVPN to a free server.

Step 5: Pick a public torrent website from the wiki and look for a movie you want to watch.

Step 6: copy the magnet link the website lists and add it to bittorrent. Wait for it to connect and download.

Step 7: enable showing extensions if you use windows; https://www.howtogeek.com/205086/beginner-how-to-make-windows-show-file-extensions/

Step 8: make sure that all your downloaded files only ever play in vlc, and that they arent .exe files.

Step 9: leave qbittorrent running (and seeding!) On your computer after your movies are downloaded.

For newbies qbitrorrent's search is more than adequate enough to replace steps 5-7. But this is a great guide!

Yes, the search is great for starting out! But i think you need to add the python-search plugins first, right? Not that its hard to do but it is something that needs to be done first
