The hell is movie-web

It was a streaming site that pulled from a large amount of other sources automatically.

Funnily enough it didn't have any discovery features whatsoever (no front page, popular, latest etc), it was just a search bar that took you right into the video so you needed an idea what it is you wanted to see. And I don't think it was nearly as popular as other sites (like you probably weren't finding it from search results, as I don't think it even had the info that'd be grabbed, and probably didn't even have SEO or anything like that)

It's available as a docker image isn't it? So we can just self host it

I found a Firefox extension that no longer exists.
