I have a bunch of old bare hard drives with tons of content sitting on them, and I was thinking about setting up a new NAS / piracy Linux box, as a backend for Plex or similar.
I want to be able to index my old content and automatically grab new episodes of TV shows and popular movies, with minimal fussing around after initial setup. I am capable with technology, so happy to spend time getting it set up in the first place.
Where should I start?
1. Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy
2. Don’t request invites, trade, sell, or self-promote
3. Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs
4. Don’t submit low-quality posts, be entitled, or harass others

Usenet is still a thing and us binary kids have completely RUINED it. the *arr stack plays well with Usenet. TrueNAS Scale is Debian based and has apps and containers. Plex, Jellyfin, *arr, qbittorrent, SAB newsreader. It wasn’t trivial to learn to set up but mine is automagic now. VPN is cheap now and lets you get on the public trackers but private trackers are where it’s at for stuff too old for Usenet
