Majel Barratt is a great shout - I'd probably go for Data or Picard though :). Or maybe Holly from Red Dwarf?

Cannot updoot enough, I love this game. Best RTS I've ever played!

iPhone 14 Pro Max. I know, I know, but the battery life can’t be beat. Great speaker, screen and camera too. Used to have a Huawei P30 Pro that was awesome though

Free is always the best price! I've been using a Sonarr/SABnzbd/Emby setup on my home built NAS (unRAID) for about 7 years now. Until recently I had about 9.5TB of shows but then got ransomwared :(. Got about 4 of it back now and counting!

Try using a different sort - "Hot: Day" is sometimes better than "Active".

Good point - I did find torrents a lot more fiddly to set up though.

At least it gives us plenty of mildly infuriating content!

It seems like PeerTube does allow peer to peer streaming of watched videos too, so that might help mitigate the bandwidth requirements. The storage and transcoding requirements will be far larger than things like Lemmy though, agreed.

Very nice guide, thanks for taking the time!

The main reason it might be used is it integrates very well with services such as Sonarr/Radarr which can auto-download TV shows/movies if you have a good indexer. That and generally the Usenet servers do not keep access logs so it tends to be a lot safer than torrenting. For software/games etc. I would stick with torrents, but for TV/Movies if you have your own server Usenet is a compelling service.

I can honestly say since Twitter did this I’ve hardly ever used it
