streaming or torrenting today vs. 5 years ago - eviltoast

I’ve been a good boy for 5 years or so but the seas call to me. Are streaming sites the way to go now or is torrenting still a better bet for mainstream movies and tv? I’d imagine all of my accounts have been deleted on those sites so I’d be starting over.

    Does anyone have a one click piracy stack setup with all the *arrs that takes mullvad yet? Someone should make that happen.

    Maybe a nix config? Docker?

          Without port forwarding you’re limited on connections and can only connect to those who do have it enabled.

          When they dropped support, I switched to AirVPN and have been satisfied. Prices are about the same I believe. Mullvad was great and even refunded me my remaining time after the switch. I’d totally use them again if I didn’t need port forwarding or if they brought the feature back.

      I used a compose file from reddit and made a couple of adjustments, it was pretty quick and works great. I dont have a VPN though.

      Mines all in a docker conpose:
      *arrs
      sabnzbd and/or a seedbox + resilio/syncthing/ftp(s)
      Jellyfin
      a reverse proxy of your choice (mines traefik)

      for DNS I utilize pihole and it’s CNAME feature.
