Is there a desktop app with similar UX to Cloudstream? in c/[email protected]

Oh that's one I haven't heard in a while, maybe I'll give it a shot too, thanks!

I have not gotten cloudstream to work

For the extensions you mean?
I successfully got them from cloudstream[dot]on[dot]fleek[dot]co/repos/ it seems like that website hasn't been taken down yet and hopefully it won't "ever", since, as I understand, it relies to some extent on the IPFS, though I don't know how that works exactly

That sounds pretty convenient, although I'm a bit worried about the privacy side, it would seem that making a guest account is a good enough compromise at least

if you login as a Guest User, no personal data is collected whatsoever.

Wait, so what's the account for?

I was looking at the options suggested for desktop use and I often see Streamio being suggested, but seeing that it requires a sign up rubs me the wrong way.
On my Linux machine I use Waydroid to run Cloudstream since it's so easy to set up and use, but on Windows the whole ordeal to get sideloaded Android apps running seems troubling, so I was wondering if there's a better app that runs natively on desktop OSes that works similarly to Cloudstream, i.e. no signups, good multilingual extensions and easy to use UI
