The only way I can see switching my Luddite family off of the streaming sites is by making it easier. Up until now, I’ve torrented the old fashioned way, but now I’m moving into plex (ik, ik, jellyfin is better) and want to start using the -arrs. As I understand it, which I’m not sure I do, the -arrs will automatically grab torrents. In my mind, this would eat up a TB pretty quickly. Do you guys all have massive SSDs (heh), or am I misunderstanding?
you dont have to configure them to grab and upgrade stuff automatically but it does make it better. They do seem to be more focused around data hoarding rather than download/watch/delete but you can definitely use it both ways. There is a button in *arr to delete from list and from disk
