Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Data hoarding random bullshit will never make sense to me. You're literally paying to keep media you didn't pay for because you need the 4k version of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 even though it was a shit movie...
Grab the YIFY, if it's good, then get the 2160p version... No reason to datahoard like that. It's frankly just stupid considering you're paying to store this media.
This may work for you and please continue doing that.
But I'll get the 1080p with a moderate bitrate version of whatever I can aquire because I want it in the first place and not grab whatever I can to fill up my disk.
And as I mentioned: Matching 500 episodes (e.g. Looney Tunes and Disney shorts) manually isnt fun.
Much less if you also want to get the exact release (for example music) of a certain media and need to play detective on musicbrainz.
With tools like TinyMediaManager, why in the absolute fuck would you do it manually?
At this point, it sounds like you're just bad at media management more than anything. 1080p h265 video is at most between 1.5-2GB per video. That means with even a modest network connection speed (500Mbps lets say) you can realistically download 5TB of data over 24 hours... You can redownload your entire media library in less than 4-5 days if you wanted to.
So why spend ~$700 on 2 20TB drives, one to be used only as redundancy, when you can simply redownload everything you previously had (if you wanted to) for free? It'll just take a little bit of time.
Complete waste of money.
I prefer Sonarr for management.
Problem is the auto matching.
It just doesnt always work.
Practical example: Looney. Tunes.and.Merrie.Melodies.HQ.Project.v2022
Some episodes are either not in the correct order or their name is deviating from how tvdb sorts it.
Your best regex/automatching can do nothing about it if
Looney.Tunes.Shorts.S11.E59.The.Hare.In.Trouble.mkvshould actually be namedLooney.Tunes.Shorts.S1959.E11.The.Hare.In.A.Pickle.mkvto be automatically imported.At some point fixing multiple hits becomes so tedious it's easier to just clear all auto-matches and restart fresh.
