  1. Download http://www88.zippyshare.com/d/ZW0TTLpT/156055/popcorn-time-community-v0.4.0-64bit.tar.xz
  2. Uncompress it (you can right click on it with Trisquel's default file manager);
  3. Open the resulting "popcorn-time-community-v0.4.0-64bit" directory in a terminal (you can right click on it with Trisquel's default file manager);
  4. Type "./install" followed by the Enter key;
  5. Type "y" followed by the Enter key to accept the terms of service.

Make sure you have an adblocker and noscript installed before accessing the link he provides. Has a lot of advertisements via popups and new tabs.

Probably. I do not see them (thanks to uBlock Origin I believe). It is the link that http://popcorntime.ag gives.

I think you better download it here as it is based on the popcorntime.io original team's work on the new project "butter" and also signed with the same gpg keys. Read about it on TF -> https://torrentfreak.com/mpaa-hunted-popcorn-time-makes-surprise-comeback-160217/

Thank you. I switched to this fork. To install it:

  1. Download https://get.popcorntime.sh/build/Popcorn-Time-0.3.9-Linux-64.tar.xz
  2. Uncompress it (you can right click on it with Trisquel's default file manager);
  3. Optionally move the uncompressed directory wherever you want (and/or rename it);
  4. With the "New Item" button of "Main Menu" (in the "System settings"), create a launcher (in the "Category" of your choice, e.g., "Sound & Video"), specifying the path to the "Popcorn-Time" binary (the the uncompressed directory) as a "Command", any "Name" you want (e.g., "Popcorn Time"), any "Comment" you want (e.g., "Watch Movies and TV Shows instantly") and any icon yu want (e.g., src/app/images/popcorntime.ico in the uncompressed directory).

The site you mentioned before says that popcorntime.sh is a MPAA controlled site now.

Since the end of popcorntime.io, the situation is a mess: many projects pretending to be the "official" heir and talking badly about other Popcorn Time projects. https://popcorntime.sh could actually be the heir: it is forked from the Butter project (developed by popcorntime.io's developers).
