    I haven’t pirated stuff in years but started again this year. It sucks that my favorite torrent site was shut down though.

      I started last year again, after they killed the family plan if you don’t share a household. Instead of paying $10 to Netflix we now pay $7 for a 2TB cloud storage account where everyone uploads their pirated movies.

        I’m gonna look into this, thanks! 😄

        I have a few go-tos foe different types of content but it’s always scary they might just stop existing one day.

        …I mean…piracy’s bad m’kay 👀

          Go for the Arr suite. Radarr for movies, Sonarr for series. They work well with Jackett, and actually have an even better (use comfort) alternative to it called Prowlarr. Once set up, maybe spending a couple hours understanding how they work, downloading a movie or a series is as easy as entering its name in a search field, seeing the related list (completely accurate), hitting add and watching the torrent start automatically. And if Jellyfin is configured as well, I can start watching whatever I downloaded with a couple clicks right away on any device I have Jellyfin, in full whichever quality my pre-set profile searched the torrent sites for. That’s quite the supply chain, centralized after landing on your host computer, streamable to any local devices or online devices, and can be automated to even search and download queries that come through discord messages.

          Understanding the indexer stuff can take a little time at the start, but it is actually as easy as saying that Jackett/Prowlarr is just the middleman between you typing your movie name and searching through all torrent sites you want at the same time. The net has videos of using them if they look confusing at any point. Using Radarr/Sonarr themselves after setting up the indexers is as straightforward as using any streaming services.
