This is my exact setup, but I use premiumize. And I have a Plex server setup for anything obscure. But that’s all too much for a couple of my friends, but they loved movie-web.app

Anybody have any recommendations for my friends who are too lazy/scared to go down the actual piracy route? Movie-web was my goto
memory hole
sick turn of phrase, i’m stealing that
can also look into haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
it’s transmission that won’t run unless it’s connected to the VPN
well with premiumize it’s even better :) they cache usenet and DDL links too. I’ve had way more success with obscure titles on there than i did with realdebrid
As for remote access, I have a separate machine running alpine with wireguard in a docker container, I VPN into that machine to get access to other devices in the network
This is smart, I should do that. I just run Tailscale on my NAS, but I do sometimes worry about it
Watch new/untested content on debrid. Hoard content you love (physical or digital).
I use premiumize instead of rd because they also scrape Usenet and Ddl links. little bit more expensive but has been worth it imo
This is what’s stopping me from using another launcher on my chromecast. I get the disdain for ads in the community, but it absolutely has its uses. Browsing is a huge part of consuming content. This is why I use stremio over some of the more attractive options because they at least have what’s popular, even if it’s not as heavily curated as the streaming services.
Another +1 for stremio and torrentio. Their popular lists don’t update as frequently as I’d hope, but all other debrid solutions require either a learning curve or a bunch of automation. Stremio just works.
using a VPN is always a good habbit to be in, whether you need it or not
I just canceled our last holdout (appletv+, who put out a surprising amount of S-tier content) in order to pay for real-debrid.
I’ve switched over from mulitple apps (including plex) to a single stremio+torrentio and I don’t understand why I didn’t do this sooner. Anything I want to watch streams immediately in 4k. altho I might upgrade to premiumize.me instead because they use usenet and ddl links, so more likely to have older content.
I don’t have a proper solution for my iOS phone yet tho, but I rarely watch content on my phone anyway.
4x 18TB (ironwolf)
2x 250GB (970 evos) SSD cache
SHR (1 disk redundancy)
in a synology DS918+ NAS,
gives me ~47TB usable space in one enclosure
and
4x 8TB (ironwolf)
RAID 5 (1 disk redundancy)
in a OWC Mercury Elite Pro Quad
gives me ~25TB usable space in the other
I have about 15TB of media stored, I like 4K HDR DV content and tend to rewatch stuff a lot. I don’t store anything that I have access to on a streaming service (unless it’s not available in 4K)
i didn’t write the quoted list, just helped the OP with his formatting. I use proton drive, not dropbox.
helped with formatting:
Chrome -> Firefox
Drive -> sync or Dropbox or any number of options
Sheets and productivity tools > libre office or Apache open office
YouTube -> Invidious or even better, odysse
Google search -> duck duck go, SearXNG, StartPage, etc
Gmail -> not a ton of great options. I’d probably recommend proton mail but the FOSS email world is definitely lacking, or gets blocked or goes down, harder to self host etc.
And I agree for sure. In order I use firefox (and brave sometimes), Proton Drive, Apple Productivity suite (pages, numbers etc), and either startpage or qwant, and proton mail. I do still use use YouTube Premium, but the point is Google doesn’t need to have its fingers in every aspect of my digital life.
silence trimming, voice boosting,
this is the first i’m even hearing of these features existing, maybe I should take a closer look at my apps
is there a reason you don’t run arr’s on your NAS as well? I use docker containers for everything on mine
wow, clearly I didn’t read enough after sign up. thanks so much for the intel!
Probably my all-time favourite non fiction title. It made me feel part of something bigger than just thinking of my teenage self as some lowly degenerate trawling zero-day torrent sites.
