Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

For animation, you can use Blender or OpenToonz. Toonz is the same software that was used by Studio Ghibli, Futurama, and Spongebob.
Yeah, I have both Blender and OpenToonz installed on my own computer, and I can certainly attest that if you have the patience to learn them and are trying to make a serious animation of serious quality, then that's what you would use. I was really just making a joke about "fanime" shows like SPARKLE ON RAVEN, My Jungle Book, Your Year!, Nyan~ Neko Sugar Girls, and Tokyo Crystal Mew — which have conventionally been made in MS Paint and Windows Movie Maker, or similar programs.
