I used to do that, but found it lacking. It only offers the most popular shows. Anything slightly niche or old is generally either not available or shit quality.
Well, you did it wrong, Real Debrid caches basically anything you would ever watch, old stuff should be fine, niche stuff maybe, I am not entirely sure, but be aware that niche or specific stuff is a pain in the ass to get.
To be honest I use both solutions, the aforementioned and Plex, but my server is filled with latin Spanish content like some cartoons from the 90s and further which it would be very hard to find in good solutions, like Real Debrid, but I’m pretty sure they are available on English.
No I fucking didn’t, lmao! How bizarre. Go try to find life(2007). You won’t. I have access to it and I ain’t paying shit. Go try to watch the entirety of 8otc does countdown. It’ll start getting wonky around s13. I have access to the entirety in correct order and I ain’t paying shit.
How about season 1 of the great british bake off? How about the entirety of the eric andre show? How about the gong show with micheal myers?
Seriously bro, I know my needs. Debrid is only good if you’re watching whatever’s on trending.
Just cracks me up when normies think that any of these things actually has access to “basically anything”. Not everything is even on the internet period
Well, I have found lots of links for those you mentioned, also some doesn’t seem that niche since it said they are on Amazon or HBO MAX, or at least that is what reports the WatchHub add-on for Stremio… Granted with Life (2007) some links appeared to be uncached, but that can be fixed if they have at least one seed.
I didn’t check all the episodes of all your examples ofc, only some firsts, middle and ending episodes, so yeah, the best way would be to you giving it a chance again I guess, but seems like you are doing totally fine with Plex Shares, and I’m glad, since this kind of not that popular media deserves to be seeded and hoarded.
The point is debrid can be patchy. I got a bit worked up lol, sorry. But yeah. Debrid is fine for most people, but for someone like who who consumes A LOT of media it does dry up when you get into the road less travelled. If plex shares dries up I will have to get into private trackers and invest in a vpn. But I have no idea how I’m going to make that set up user friendly for the rest of the family. It’s gonna be a nightmare.
For what it’s worth, it’s very easy to accomplish that automation you’re looking for. All you want is your server to have your VPN set up to your torrenting client (don’t want any leaks!), then there are programs referred to as the *arrs which you simply type {name of media} and it pulls from a list of your needs (for example, pull 1080p, ignore below it) and sorts it for you (for example, push 4k to a separate library). And that’s it for you, as from there it’s naming what you want and your setup all does the rest.
As for f&fam, Overseer or Omni something. It’s a request space they can use and it’s automated so you don’t have to worry about it.
So if your family can download an app/navigate to a page and type in what they want and be okay with sometimes waiting 30 minutes I think it is a pretty user friendly solution. I also think spending wise over time it does even out. A yearly sub to various steaming services themselves, just 3 for 1 year is already the cost of more than enough storage. Granted, paid options like Usenet or what you guys are talking about are a fair amount cheaper but then you’re also still relying on and paying other services.
Yeah, I get what you say, sometimes is better to have full control, especially with older media.
I don’t think Plex Server Share are going to die because of Reddit people like to share stuff, for cheap or for free it doesn’t matter, more likely they will move somewhere else, I’d check in Discord too, or hopefully they make it here someday.
If it is worth something setting up is only a pain it the ass once, when you have it set up it is a breeze with software as Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr, Tautulli etc, you can keep using Plex.
You’d need some hardware though, I’d recommend something with Linux I do all of the above and more with a Synology NAS (DS218+), my only problem is the lack of storage.
I am meeting them champ ;) I was explaining why debrid isn’t a suitable alternative. Perhaps your issue is you just have terrible reading comprehension?
For some reason you are hellbent on seeing some kind entitlement or negative angle to this, but I suppose we all get a bit curmudgeony with age. Perhaps that explain your reading comprehension too. Or maybe you’re a bit bitter because I called you ignorant, hmm? Chin up lil guy.
People are still willing to share their plex, the main hub where they offer it was destroyed. Welcome to the point you fucking retard.
As soon as plan b is necessary I will get to it. The point is that the plexshare community on reddit was a nice and convenient resource. That’s it. Why are you such an annoying asshole?
I’d have to agree. I’ve been pirating for more than two decades but have always viewed stuff like PlexShares with disdain. It brings negative attention to the rest of us when people are doing it for profit plus I don’t like that randos are charging other randos to watch free content. I share my Plex server with friends and family but don’t charge because it’s running for me and my spouse/kid primarily and being able to share it is just a bonus.
Plex was the alternative here, that generally covered all services. Hence the complaining bud. It served as a nice alternative to straight up torrenting etc.

I don’t have the time or resources for that. If you can’t understand that it’s not something everyone is up for then you’re ignorant.
If you don’t have time or resources for that I’d suggest to check on Streamio or even Kodi with a Real Debrid account, you won’t need anything else.

The only shows that I’ve noticed is impossible to find is golden balls. Would love to watch it, but it seems to not be available at all.
Other shows are findable but a headache, like who wants to be a millionaire. Even super recent seasons a lot of the guys don’t want to deal with.

It’s easy as long as you have the hardware… any kind of server is completely undoable for me. I would not be able to keep up any kind of ratio.
The only feasible way for me would be usenet block subscriptions and a 1 tb hard drive, and downloading show by season as I go.
Yeah, I get what you say, sometimes is better to have full control, especially with older media.

The problem for me is the hardware. All that storage and shit is just too expensive.
“I have my needs but I’m not willing to do anything to meet them other than complain online that other people aren’t doing the legwork for me”
Goddamn when did this kind of entitlement become acceptable and even encouraged in the larger piracy community?
I am meeting them champ ;) I was explaining why debrid isn’t a suitable alternative. Perhaps your issue is you just have terrible reading comprehension?

Sounds like everyone else is meeting those needs for you, now you’re sad that people won’t share their Plex with you.
Sorry about your total lack of self reliance.
People are still willing to share their plex, the main hub where they offer it was destroyed. Welcome to the point you fucking retard.

“Gee, where’s the honor among thieves? Entitlement in this community of people too good to pay for their content? How rare.”
If you dont have time and resources for pirating content safely and independently, I think Hulu has a new subscriber deal going on.
I’d have to agree. I’ve been pirating for more than two decades but have always viewed stuff like PlexShares with disdain.

Yeah it’s nice when others do all the work for you.
But this community will def help you set up your own server. Feel free to share that link out when you set it up.
I’m on quite a few discords. Hopefully when those die there will be new active communities. Until then.
