I've been a good boy for 5 years or so but the seas call to me. Are streaming sites the way to go now or is torrenting still a better bet for mainstream movies and tv? I'd imagine all of my accounts have been deleted on those sites so I'd be starting over.

Commenting to bring awareness to the ‘arrs. Radarr sonarr and lidarr will get you all the media you need organized perfectly. It runs on any device but take a few days to figure out. Once setup it’s a set it and forget it thing. Uses torrents and or usent so use a vpn. Mine runs on a 10 year old raspberry pi 2 and a few usb hdds. Been going strong with very little maintenance for 6 years at this point.

Agreed. Combined with a jellyfin instance and you will never want to come back. As said before, it takes a while to setup at first (especially if you download animes which aren't exactly handled the same way), but when it's done you'll see you weekly episodes magically appear with nothing to do on your side, and that's just great

Have you seen a good method/guide to prioritise release groups for anime? I looked into it but it was super confusing to me and didn't beat just grabbing a nyaa rss feed.

[–] faercol@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Actually yeah I do. I followed this guide which is really nice. I did need to add a few more sources manually depending on how popular a given anime is, but it's really useful anyway
