With Netflix already having ads we are now 75% of the way to "cutting the cord" going back to reinventing cable again.

And that's why people started sailing the high seas again.

My NAS is my best friend.

I had to upgrade mine probably 2 years ago now. I had nearly maxed out the 12TB I had. Now I have almost 30TB and some breathing room. Granted a lot of that is non-movies/TV but a good chunk of it is.

I’d be interested in building one… what do you recommend ?

[-] Miqo@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I have an Asustor Drivestor 2 and a 4tb Seagate NAS HDD. IIRC, it was around $300 total. I've only been using it for a few months, but it's an easily expandable setup if you want to add more storage later!

Indeed.

Ad-blocking (before anything online)
DHT crawler, or index sites if DHT has too many results
right-click/long-press on magnet URL
copy link
paste magnet link
remove tracker URLs (not needed)
go
enjoy

Hm, 8 steps, is one more than the 7 stages of grief; but I'll take this over yet-another subscription service that continually degrades in quality for the dollar.

What is a DHT crawler?
