look up a guide on how to set up stremio with torrentio and realdebrid. takes all of 15-30 minutes to set up and $15 for 6 months of being able to stream practically anything all in one place.
(I know not an answer but I figured an actual solution to the problem was preferable to a 20th person explaining enshittification lol)
this is a fully integrated frontend that looks like a proper streaming app using a debrid service to provide the content, it’s a wooooorld of difference.
much much much more convenient and less AP than traditional pirating.
I dunno. I got a plex lifetime pass 13 years ago in college and setup Usenet with sab, sickbeard and couch potato. Aside from moving to sonarr, radarr 8 or so years ago I’ve never needed to think about it. Currently sitting at 36TB of content. Maybe I’ll move to jellyfin but ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Before that I was on DC++ and IRC and honestly haven’t needed torrents in my stack since I was in middle school back in the early aughts
I mean yeah if you enjoy the homelab project aspect of it that’s great, personally I was looking into setting up a similar stack when I stumbled across a reddit post of someone who had a similarly huge library that was collecting dust because they just used stremio all the time instead.
that post is actually how I first heard about stremio lol
