I think I might cancel. I’m not watching ads and I’m not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don’t know if I’d end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though…

    Man I just moved to the arr’s I’m a Usenet guy… but torrents are the same deal… I added overseerr on top of that and all I do now is “request” it on overseerr and blamonit appears on my Plex server.

    For example if you wanted to download all of the seasons of say… SpongeBob. With overseerr it’s literally 1. search for the show 2. click request and wait.

    Super easy, barely an inconvenience Check out trash guides and overseerr.dev

    I run all of mine in docker with docker compose.

    Also I gave my mil and fil link to overseerr which Plex authenticates… They can request what ever and it appears.

      Is there an idiot guide how to do this? I’ve never pirated and I don’t currently have a VPN. I use my Xbox for streaming straight to my TV using HDMI. I see posts like yours with various words like Plex, overseerr, docker, jellyfin, etc., and I don’t know where to even start. I could Google it, but among the hundreds of results, I don’t know which things are reputable, functional, and not malware.
