There is always a way. But convenience is also important and time is valuable. So instead of just clicking on a title on Netflix, we should instal & maintain a server and search for content on torrents?
There are fully integrated solutions for kodi. Sure there's some setup but the alternative is paying a lot more for low res content on linux.
Yeah that and many more convenience reasons are why people like me don't prefer to use linux on desktop. Also even if you have your setup, not being able to view hdr content at all on linux is a big turn off for me personally.
