A 40mpbs up connection can host quite a few people. I used to have 40 up and i was able to do 4-5 people remotely just fine.

Host the shit yourself. The monthly costs of paying a hoster will be far greater than just getting the equipment yourself. Imagine you pay for example $50 a month for a half way decent server. That’s $600 a year. That alone is a decent plex server with decent storage. Times that by 5-10 years and you are paying out the ass for the same server and the same storage vs using that same money to spend on HDD space and the plus side is it’s actually YOUR equipment in the end. Now i get some guys have shit internet and those people I’m not talking about. Some will try and say they don’t have space. I call BS. An intel NUC is extremely tiny and power efficient and can be hooked up to an external enclosure tucked away. I myself have the space for a rack with multiple JBODs but i know not everyone has that luxury.

I tried jellyfin but for the life of me I can’t figure out why my search takes 1-2 mins to load when searching something. Multiple people have this issue but none of the fixes work for me. So sadly it’s still plex for me.

You…pay for email???

Ye it’s wild. They also say they only pirate X or Y or do it because of Z. Like are you a pirate or not bro? You’re either in or not. I pirate everything I possibly can. That goes for small indie companies up to the AAA guys, small film companies to box office. ALL OF IT. I always got downvoted for saying it too on a PIRACY sub! Shits wild.

Edit: Even on lemmy my point gets proven 🤣

Im a usenet guy but i loved rarbg for the top little section for new popular movies. If you were able to copy this exactly from rarbg i will use the site. Not the torrents but just that top section lol.

That thumbnail is something else🤣

Ayyy i remember that place. That’s where the OG netflix ripping tool from scene was. Doesn’t work anymore sadly.

Had quite a great laugh reading that and the empress channel firing back. I just love sitting back and watching it all unfold. I don’t care for either group i just want the games. I could care less who does it.
