I only need to send sign up and password reset emails for Jellyfin, I don’t need to receive any emails back.

You can selfhost Standard Notes. The notes are encrypted client side before they reach the server.

Would you only be duplicated content from wikis already available and simply cherry picking from those lists instead? I don’t see how FMHY is difficult to navigate. Yes it has 10,000 links, but you go to the topic you need and it has 10-20 links of which you can pick and choose.

Pretty much every software crack says ‘Block this application in your firewall’. I guarantee most people don’t. Following these instructions would have prevented this entirely.

You are looking for the arr scripts (formally arr-extended). https://github.com/RandomNinjaAtk/arr-scripts/blob/main/lidarr/readme.md

No, but it is in the megathread both here and on Reddit. It’s practically the largest video game soundtrack website/forum that exists right now with the exception of maybe Soulseek.

Is it really underground if you can just go to the website and sign up?

Back in 2019 some releases installed directly from IGG-GAMES contained crypto miners. They also added their own DRM to releases. Since then I have stayed away and never looked back.

Best of luck with your endless tech support anytime something doesn’t work.

hallowed is the internal release group at MTV. Their aim is to produce highly streamable (think Plex/Jellyfin) but still high quality encodes. They also always include English subs and dual audio for foreign films. The quality of their releases are good but very few as they only started releasing under that name about 5 months ago.

However, if you are gunning for highest possible quality/bitrate (and file size) you can get, go with releases by CtrlHD, MainFrame or W4NK3R.

Tixati isn’t whitelisted on pretty much any private tracker because of how easy it makes spoofing other clients.

Sorting a music library is a very manual process. Your best bet is MusicBrainz Picard to clean up your metadata then use something like Lidarr and Lidarr Extended to maintain and continue to add to your library.

FraMeSTor is the internal group at BHD. EPSiLON was previously releasing on PHD but left a couple years ago. They release to TL but are not nearly as active as they once were.

I prioritize FraMeSTor, and they have more releases post-2020.

I’ve started using Hoarder and am enjoying it. I really like the page caching and automatic AI tagging so that I don’t have to.

My Prowler stats over the last 90 days are ~1600 usenet grabs vs ~40 torrents. Definitely worth it not have to seed and constant gigabit speed.

I have run Jellyfin for about 3 years. Plex has a lot of community support and praise so I spun up a test instance. Unfortunately for Jellyfin, Plex is much most reliable for me in pretty much every way. I would love for Jellyfin to keep improving but the switch to Plex just made the media experience so much nicer.

You can but you don’t need to. All they really do is organise everything. Any requests go through Prowlarr/Jackett which do the API calls then push that to qBit. One could argue you should put Prowlarr behind a VPN as well but it depends on the trackers you have in there.

This isn’t true. I used a debit card from a different country and it worked fine.
