LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don't get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive "privacy policy" - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO..

I get pissed at my family for being traditional hoarders but I somewhat inherited that as a data hoarder. The amount of stuff I have pirated over the years and not actually used or watched is hilarious.

Same here. But on the bright side, at least data hoarding doesn't take up a ton of physical space.

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 9 months ago

Well, it does if you do a lot.

What are we taking TB wise?

[-] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 3 points 9 months ago

I have about 10TB of stuff. Around 600 movies and not quite 200 TV series. I'm planning on leaving societies embrace and being away from it all in a couple of weeks and have been hoarding stuff to keep me entertained, if needed. I'm not the one you asked, but here you go. I don't really feel like I have a ton of stuff, from a datahoarder perspective, but probably a little more than the average torrent monster.

Hm are those high res movies? 10 TB seems to small

Probably around 30tb but all in, but drives being from 400gb to 8 tb of varying age and make. Most are just shelved and in the off chance I want something from them they get hot swapped in the dock thing

[-] Thermal_shocked@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Just upgraded my truenas and plex to 8tb drives. 1600+ movies, 60+ TV series, 40,000 songs. I seed as much as I can, have uploaded over 5TB this month alone. Come get some.
