I use SyncThing to monitor and copy my photos to an (encrypted, offsite) drive.

Not really what I was looking for but thanks for the suggestion.

On every site I've checked it uses a random css tag so can't block more than one.

I am in a similar boat. Since you have Tidal might want to look into Tidal-dl to "backup" the things you especially like in high quality.

Tidal is actually not too bad, and it pays artists more than other services (not a lot, just more) but I do expect it to go downhill/away eventually so I make a habit of downloading what I can and supporting the artist directly in other ways.

Overseerr is basically a polished front end for Radarr/Sonarr. It's useful if non-techies are requesting things, and/or you just want a single, dead-simple place to request (video) media. If you want to just try it out it doesn't affect your radarr/sonarr setup at all.

@ShepherdPie@midwest.social gave a good explanation of Prowlarr. Just another simplification/automation tool.

The simple answer:

Get Qbittorrent and use it's built-in search engine.

The fully automated gay space answer:

• Look into selfhosting - (optional but makes it easier/coler)
• Look into Plex (or Emby or Jellyfin) - optional but makes it pretty

These are the apps you'll need:

• Radarr - Gets movies
• Sonarr - Gets tv shows automatically as they come out
• Prowlarr - the thing that does the searching for radarr/sonarr.
• Overseerr - Makes it simple to request stuff
• Qbittorrent - downloads things

(There is also Lidarr for music and Readarr for books)

If all set up correctly, you simply just request something with Overseerr and it shows up in Plex minutes later with artwork and metadata all pulled in and presented nicely. You can configure the apps to look for specific resolutions/file sizes/formats/etc. TV shows are downloaded as soon as a new episode is released. It's better than any streaming service by leaps and bounds.

The fact that they are only here was the final straw for me to make the switch to Lemmy.

seasons4u is amazing

Physical buttons please and thank you

I'm getting hung up because nobody clarified that until now thank you.

I did actually do it this way for a while, it's clunky but works. Unfortunately my Firefox container stopped loading, I tried Chrome and N.eko which also had issues and I'm not experienced enough to overcome those.

That's promising, can you point me in the right direction?

The staff were the ones who told me there's no workaround except to purchase a seedbox

I should have clarified, not browsing, but the torrent/magnet link won't work. I can't browse from one PC then paste the link into qBittorrent on the server.

It is, but diplomacy refers to disputes between peoples. Politics refers to disputes within a people.

I didn't say anything about pacifism, but I also disagree with your proposition equating violence and politics. Violence is a breakdown of politics. Politics, almost definitionally, is how a people settle disputes without violence.

Politics is how how decisions are made in groups. If one person or group is forcing their will upon others, then no decision or compromise between the parties can be said to have been made freely. And therefore it cannot be truthfully described as following a political process.

I will engage with you in the context of your original proposition but I will not engage with Gish Galloping.

That is a very machivellian attitude. I don't believe that hurting people who aren't a threat in the name of "progress" is justified, even if it were somehow a shortcut to utopia, which it's not.

Eh, anyone who knows what "Install an add-on from a repo" means also knows how to install firefox despite it being "censored".

Maybe referring to china's treatment of minorities? Though usually when people say "extreme left" they are referring to scary groups like public transit advocates.
