Yup, it’s called Lidarr. It isn’t quite as nice as the tools for movies/TV, but it gets the job done.

Install them, point them to your media folder, tell them what your preferred quality level is, and they’ll handle everything else.
The Trash Guides are probably the best resource to get running.
I’ve been happy with DuckDNS. Free, simple, and reliable.
It isn’t just you, it failed on me enough times that I’ll never touch it again. I either manually install raw Arch, or use EndeavourOS instead for a “lazy” install.
If it was me, I’d just go without parity temporarily and grab another drive for that when I could. A new system should be safe enough for a while, just not forever.
It’s just Chromium with a layer of Microsoft on top. It’ll have the same extension issues from Manifest v3 that mainline Chrome does.
On the bright side, 20TB of hard drives is relatively cheap these days if you buy used. They’ll pay for themselves in a year if you kill the streaming services.
Happy sailing
Unless you’re also running a torrent client, you don’t really need a VPN at all. The *arrs aren’t doing anything that needs to be hidden, and Usenet is fine with just SSL.
You can interact with a single container if you need to, not just the whole compose group. docker compose restart jellyfin
works for your example, and “restart” can be swapped for stop or start as needed.
Splitting compose files can be a good idea, but it isn’t always necessary.
Exactly. IMDB assigns an identifier to each piece of content, and Plex (or Jellyfin/Emby/etc) use that to pull metadata.
It doesn’t seem like a huge stretch. If somebody had a stored collection, and didn’t share the server with anybody, why not point Plex at that folder? There’s even an *arr for it, so it fits right into the usual stack.
It does, but it’s done me wrong a few times so I never recommend it. For all I know it’s fine these days, but old grudges are hard do shake.
You could do it on the NAS. Qbittorrent is probably the highest-recommended client right now, and it has a web UI that can be accessed from any other device on your network.
That said, I run one of the tiny Thinkcentres as a dedicated torrent and *arrs box. I think I paid $30 for that one, and it has more than enough power for the task.
Given the recent issues with ads, I wouldn’t recommend anything Android/GoogleTV based. A USFF PC will give you better performance for less money, especially if you buy used. You can find 1L X86 boxes for $30-60 on eBay that are perfect for the job.
Australia actually did that a couple years ago, but only for vaping-related nicotine. Cigs were unaffected.
Jellyseerr doesn’t do music, but Ombi does. I run them both, with Ombi set for music only.
For laptops, I’ve been using EndeavourOS lately. All of the Arch goodness, but with an easy installer that handles the DE too. It’s as close to “just works” as you can get while still having pacman + AUR at the end.
I still love raw Arch, but I leave that for server installs.
Readarr goes through fits of not working very well, usually linked to issues with the metadata provider. My tip would be to ditch it entirely and use LazyLibrarian instead. It’s a lot more reliable, and has all of the same functionality.
My daily driver right now is an old Lenovo Ideapad (50-70 I think) with EndeavourOS, I have a few other assorted Thinkpads and Ideapads running mainly EOS or Arch, and home servers running Arch. I use Arch btw.
The “backup” laptops are flexible though, I distro-hop on them fairly often. Older Lenovos are usually great for Linux compatibility.
Not really. Root lets you completely replace the stock YouTube install and works without microG, but that’s about it iirc. And if you have the Play Store installed, you need to make sure it doesn’t try to “update” rooted Revanced and break things.
I prefer the non-root version, even on rooted devices.
