I have a pair of “WTF” coffee mugs I got from them probably 15 years ago, and still use regularly. Amazingly, for being free promo items, they are still in virtually perfect condition!

No you’re right, the hardlinks themselves are not directional. I just misunderstood the advice as meaning that Radarr would create a hardlinked file in my torrent folder, using the existing file in my media library. (It will not)
The part that was tripping me up was that it seemed like I had to manually add the movies to Radarr’s library before it would let me import any of my torrent files. Otherwise it would give me an error saying the movie was unknown.
I think I’m starting to get the hang of it though.
Thanks, that makes sense.
I’ve been going cross-eyed staring at the Trash guides and Servarr wiki trying to get hardlinks and all the file paths working correctly (stupid simple fix in the end), so a little nudge in the right direction is appreciated.

Sure, that would get all the torrented content into radarr quickly, but I guess I should have stated that my intent is to continue seeding that content from the qbittorrent client on my media server.
Unless radarr is somehow smart enough to hardlink the opposite direction (from the media library back to torrents folder) and let qbittorrent know that content is ready to seed…?
So maybe consider channeling that boredom into something productive instead of tearing down something you don’t like, that has zero tangible impact on your life.
Anyway, you’re right this is not a great interaction, so take 'er easy.
I mean, you replied twice to my comment, to let me know you weren’t worked up, so…
Also stating
passivity in the face of decline has always been the preferable option. Protecting our sacred decorum is so much more important than maintaining a critical eye and standards
makes me think you’re taking it pretty damn seriously lol

Imagine being this worked up about a webcomic, shitty or otherwise.
Not OP, but I can answer part of your questions:
if I migrate to Jellyfin do I need to fuck around with my folder structures ? No special case just /movie/title | tv/title in my use-case with the usual arr stack for grabbing.
I have Plex and Jellyfin running off the exact same media library no problem at all. So there should be zero need to modify anything–if anything Jellyfin seems a little better at catching “extras” folders than Plex.
I don’t need remote playback for movies/tvs but I have no idea how to replace Plexamp and if you have suggestions, feel free to mention it.
The Jellyfin app plays music–but it’s definitely NOT a music app. I always hear Symfonium highly recommended, but have not yet given it a whirl myself.
Absolutely. They are not going to share metadata or things like played status, but I have been using both simultaneously since almost the first day I spun up my media server.
I definitely prefer Jellyfin overall, but Plex is more convenient for sharing with less techy family so I keep it spun up. Jellyfin also requires some finicky network configuration (so I have heard) to cast media to a Chromecast, so Plex wins out there.
That’s a strange take…
How many of these movies feature him getting captured and executed by the state? (None that I am aware of)
And how many feature him getting killed by members of the criminal life his character is involved in? (Most or all)
That’s the entire point–other criminals generally don’t care about the justice system or the value of life, so don’t get involved with that shit.
Given your instance, I’m guessing you’re not from the US… but here there are two generally standard shapes for residential toilets–round and oblong. The round ones fit better in small bathrooms, but man when you are used to the oblong shape it feels like sitting on a child-size toilet or something.
I bought a set of mugs like that recently. It’s a shame because they are pretty nice looking, and comfortable to hold when empty. But when full of hot liquid, the handle just is totally inadequate.
They are from IKEA, so at least they didn’t cost too much, but I am a little surprised because their stuff is generally pretty well thought out from an ergonomics and usability perspective–it’s only really the sturdiness/durability I ever worry about.
The best mugs I have are still a pair of the stereotypical featureless cylinder type I got from a giveaway 10 or 15 years ago–they are utterly boring, but the handle fits 3 fingers for a perfectly stable grip!
Thank you, this clears up some misconception i had about how the *arrs work!
Got it, thanks!
If all your current files are still in the “download” folder, you could probably setup the arrs and qbit as recommended in the guides
Yeah, that’s the rub… they are all currently in separate movies, shows, and music folders as Plex/Jellyfin want them to be.
But it’s sounding like the best bet is to leave the existing content alone for now and spin things up per the guides until I have a better handle on how it all works. Appreciate the input!
Yeah, I’m using Unraid, so this would all be in dockers.
I think maybe I had a false understanding that radarr (for example) interposes itself between the actual media files and Plex/Jellyfin… which sounds like a PITA to undo, and was giving me pause.
Thanks, this is helpful!
If I do a “clean” install, can i later identify specific pieces of media within a library to monitor?
That is a hell of a read.
