  • Yeah, I had the same feeling before I discovered how powerfull it is.

    It’s not that hard to keep it well organized manually I guess, but you have to be very thorough and always keep the same structure when you do something ! I’m not at all an expert in scripting or programming on Linux and i’m relatively new in the Linux familly so I guess Im lacking a lot of basic skills in that matter.

    I did appreciated my manual setup for a while. Also I did learned a lot of new things (what are inodes, files, hardlinks, softlinks, mount points, ffmpeg, mkvtools…) But now that I have that new basic knowledge I can take away this mental charge and just let it run whithout the need to overthink things !

    I think it’s the best course of action for my learning Linux journey :)







  • The arr stack is kinda tricky to get started and understand how it all works together, but as soon as it clicks, it’s awesome !!

    Can’t exactly say what, but I kinda got lost and what helped me out was to slowly work one arr service at a time and understand what they actually do. (First only Sonarr after awhile I added prowlarr, then radarr and now slowly testing Seer !)

    Trash guide was also helpful specially for custom formats. Just take your time and don’t try to much to make your own custom formats… Have seen alot a of people on private trackers blow up their ratio without noticing it.

    Best advice I can give you is to just play arround with sonarr or radarr alone and try things out and see what they do ^^ Or try to read and understand the official documentation but you will have a better grasp while doing things :)

    Edit: Ohh and forget about asking chatGPT… It will mostly output outdated information an cause you more trouble and leave you even more confused !

    Nobody mentioned this but route only the necessary traffic to your router (all your self-hosted services) with wireguard’s split tunneling (just set the apropriate allowed_ip networks in your wg config).

    You could set it to 0.0.0.0/0 and send all her traffic through your router but this could potientially choke your own network and make her own speed slow down.


  • It’s kinda open I guess… But as soon as you try to do things out of the box on MacOS, it just doesn’t work without a janky workarround ^^

    And just don’t get me started on their .plist implementation 🤦‍♂️ I haven’t update for about 2 years, in fear it will totally break my current workflow and all the custom things I had to do to make it work HOW i like it and not how Apple dictates it.

    It’s a gift, but God what I hate that dumb stupid Macraptop !
