Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I use Prowlarr + Radarr + Sonarr + Jellyfin.

I have /data directory organised like this:

/data
├── media
│   ├── books
│   ├── movies
│   ├── music
│   └── tv
└── torrents
    ├── books
    ├── movies
    ├── music
    └── tv

Files added from Sonarr goes to torrents/tv and that for Radarr torrents/movies. Once the torrent client has downloaded the files, Sonarr and Radarr hardlinks the needed files to media's respective folders. I have set media/tv for shows and media/movies for movies on Jellyfin. Everything is automated, I love it.

I dump everything into a single folder. Like a junk drawer. Because I really only save junk anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

Plex for playback.

Transmission for torrents.

Radarr for movies.

Sonarr for tv.

Lidarr for music.

Bazarr for subtitles.

Readarr for books.

Ombi for discovery and requests.

Tautulli for statistics and newsletters.

• Jellyfin: Media Center to stream movies, TV shows and music
• sonarr, radar, lidarr: manage collections and download, TV shows, movies and music, respectively
• transmission: torrent client, through VPN connection (NordVPN)
• Jackett: tracker manager
• stash: like Jellyfin, but for linux-iso files /s

All of that runs in docker containers on my NAS, using docker-compose to deploy the stack.

For managing my library on disk, I just recently made the effort to set up the *arr apps. I love having the metadata, tagging, organizing, and file naming all consistent and automated. Previously I used mp3tag and filebot to manage them and it was way more manual. Everything is set up with docker-compose and Ansible.

Library file stuff:

• Two Radarr instances, one for 4k and another for lower resolutions
• Sonarr for TV
• Lidarr for music
• Two readarr instances, one for epub/pdf and one for audiobooks
• Jackett
• deluge+openVPN

For library frontend stuff:

• Jellyfin for movies, tv, music, audiobooks
• Plex, for when Jellyfin is acting up
• Jellyseer for TV & movie requests
• LaunchBox for videogames and emulators
• Calibre + calibreWeb for ebooks & syncing to my Kobo eReader

Haven't set up yet:

• flaresolverr
• unpackerr
• audiobookshelf

Doesn't exist yet/wishlist:

• *arr app for emulator ROMs (I'll have to check out romm, looks pretty cool!)

Plex for my Movies, TV shows, and music (plexamp for music).

Kavita for books. Also nextcloud to a degree.

Games, honestly I have not pirated in a long time, so no need to manage. Gabe Newell was right in that piracy is mainly a service problem, and to be honest Steam and GoG are convenient enough for me that I don't feel the need to pirate anymore.

Surprised to see no mention of Playnite. I used to use Stardock Fences to categorize my games on my desktop, then I found Playnite and there was no looking back. It's a big game library with incredible features. Here's what I see when I load it up. (the games listed here are the games I have listed as "currently playing")
