You know what's hotter? Running an automated piracy server using Plex (Or Jellyfin i guess xoxo) and the -arr family of apps on a raspberry Pi so you can pretend you've got a cute little netflix system :^)
Requires slightly more hardware than a pi, but once you get to the double digit terabytes range of storage, you can honestly have a better plex/jellyfin library than Netflix in any one particular country (except maybe the US? I think US netflix has all the good shows and movies that we're missing here in Europe).
Netflix might have more volume, but there's a lot of low quality shit nobody wants to watch, whereas you can just throw literally every blockbuster ever made on just a couple of terabytes at lower quality levels.
I have an always-on vpn container and a transmission server container on my home server. Then I use transmission as a client on my laptop and I don't need to continually connect and disconnect.
Any interest in a how-to guide? I won't get to it for at least two weeks, mind.
Yes!!!
