  • No one blames them for trying to balance costs vs income. People are upset about them being greedy. Yes, they pay for hosting of the content, but the content was not created or provided by them. The content is from the community.

    They have shown recently that they don’t care what the community wants. They want what they want, which is to be profitable so they can IPO. They are willing to lose all of the power users they have pissed off in search of that goal.

    That is not a place a community can thrive without being inundated with bots spamming the living dog shit out of it. A community that is built and moderated by itself, cares about the content. Reddit does not. They now care about the money.



  • I use a reverse proxy (NginxProxyManager). I got so addicted to self hosting I bought a 14 bay server and put UnRaid on it. My job gives me access to decommissioned hard drives, so I filled it up lol. UnRaid makes setting these services up a cakewalk, but it helps to understand Docker to keep it running correctly.

    As for video re-encoding, you have Compressarr, tdarr, unmanic, and handbrake mostly. I use handbrake most of the time, but it is manual. I will often times just re-download them in the format that I want. Once you are deeper in the weeds with Sonarr, there are ways to configure it to only download certain formats of video.

    Good luck!

  • I would recommend just starting with migrating your Plex setup to Jellyfin. You can get that done in 30 minutes to an hour.

    Setting up all of the arr’s takes hours, depending on how intense you want the automations to be (hours to days). I started with Sonarr for TV/Anime direct installed on Windows. Once I knew I liked it and wanted to keep using it, I bought a small form factor PC and installed Ubuntu Server and Docker (which takes a lot longer).

    If you can follow guides on the internet, there are tons out there. What OS are you running?
