    I am so disappointed in you, US consumer.

      I cancelled after the last hike, and my family has access to my plex server with great quality and reliability, and a simple request system. But they barely use it. They just got their own Netflix after I cancelled the one we shared that I was paying for.

        Finally got fiber at my home and created many accounts for my family on my emby server. Wanted to give them access to my overseer server but I don’t trust it’s very secure. I will just let them access it and make requests when they visit.

          Fat Far out! You’re like the only person I’ve seen mention emby. It’s always Plex. Been running emby for a while and it’s great.

            Not being a network guy, it took a bit for me to get reverse proxy set up on my Synology NAS, but now all my services run through it and have LetsEncrypt certs.

            Highly recommend reverse proxy to obscure your services and make it easier for friends and family to find them!

              Yeah, it wasn’t the easiest thing. Though, I think my biggest problem was due to docker. All of my services are in containers, reverse proxy included, and it took a bit to figure out that not all network types in docker containers can natively communicate with eachother. I think I ended up putting everything in bridged mode so they could all communicate.

                You’re father along in the tech than I am, so kudos! I tried docker and just couldn’t get things to work how I wanted or expected. I’m sure I’ll try again in the future but had a kid in 2019 so haven’t really revisited it! You give me hope!!

        Do you use sonarr/radarr/jackett? I can’t seem to find any good indexers that actually work

          Sonarr radarr prowlarr

          Accounts with IPTorrents, AlphaRatio, and TorrentLeech

          All my stuff comes from them

            Looks like IPT and TL are invite only or you can pay money… Is that how you got in or did you get an invite? Seems kinda sketchy sending them money for a seedbox I’ll never use. AT is inv only.

              I got an invite for IPT from a friend, was my first private tracker. I think the others I got during open registrations they had.

              I’ve got invites, you able to seed back for 2 weeks?

              If multiple invitees have bad ratio, the inviter can have their account disabled. So usually invite sharing with strangers goes along with proof of past ratio.

              There was a subreddit for it, maybe there’s a lemmy community

                  Just checked, and yes, on all 3 platforms I see the username of the person I invited and can check their stats, and I can also see the person who invited me and their stats.

                That would be awesome if I could get invites! I just set up a headless Ubuntu Server that will always be on and I can set up my seed ratio to infinite.

                I’m rocking ProtonVPN pro with fiber so I have 1000Mbps up/down without vpn. Not exactly sure what the max up with that is.

                As for proof I don’t have much. My only current one is 49gb downloaded v 53gb up

      I canceled my Netflix when this happened. I wasn’t really using it, but friends and family were. At least three of them created their own accounts when I canceled mine.

      Yes what a bunch of dolts paying for the services they use instead of mooching off of others.

      Of course they’re going to say that. They won’t provide hard data to prove it, but by saying it they can keep doing it and make it look like a positive PR move.

      Either they blatantly lie about the outcome of the password crackdown or they see no issues at all to showcase how mind-bogglingly greedy they are. I think I’ve read this week they claim that subscriptions increased by 6 million worldwide. You’d think that is enough increase in revenue for a while, but no, let’s increase prices now. Weird timing imo, unless they’re testing how far they can go
