The code for Vanced was never open source, so Revanced isn’t technically a fork. They had to recreate all of Vanced’s features manually.
Check this program: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
They handle the downloading, extraction, categorising and naming of the media you want and they can do that automatically.
I’m good with handling this manually, or rather, I don’t even have to handle any of this since Stremio takes care of it, and I have neither the hard drive space nor the bandwidth to devote toward allowing a bunch of programs to just start downloading large files perpetually in the background, filling up my hard drive and taking up all my bandwidth lol. The .arr suite is best combined with a seedbox and a dedicated computer. All I have is a 1.5 TB hard drive and no gigabit internet speeds.
And honestly, I don’t see what appreciable amount of “time and effort” this is going to save for me. With Stremio, it’s as easy as going into the catalog (or using the search bar), clicking a movie, and picking one of the releases from the menu. If I wanna watch a show or movie that isn’t out yet or whose upcoming season is yet to be released, I can just add it to my library and turn on notifications.
It doesn’t get any easier than that, doesn’t require a massive hassle with a set-up process involving several different programs and trial and error, and I don’t have to devote hard drive space for every show or movie I want to watch, since Stremio keeps files on a temporary cache that gets deleted at regular intervals, so it doesn’t end up filling my hard drive. This system is perfect for me, I have no reason to change it.
As I mentioned in a different comment here, I’m already familiar with the arr suite. It’s how I found Jackett in the first place, and I’ve already determined that setting up the .arr programs isn’t worth it for me. Stremio suits me just fine, the .arr programs appear to be better suited toward those with the time and money to setup a whole dedicated server for their media needs. I only consume media on my personal computer, so I have no need for that.
I have tried Prowlarr though, just yesterday in fact. I didn’t really find its manual search feature to be any better than Jackett’s, and in fact it had some issues. In any case, since I don’t use the .arr programs, I’ve no reason to switch. Thanks for the suggestion though.
I’m not sure if they have an android version of Jackett. It would be a dream come true if that were the case, but I’m sure it would be listed in the Jackett github page if a mobile version was available. Sadly, there’s no mention of anything like that on the github page.
Really glad to hear you were able to get Jackett working, though! It really is an amazing program.
See, I was hoping this meme would inform at least one person that Qbittorrent comes with an in-built search engine. That’s how I found out about it in the first place, through a meme lol
Jackett comes preloaded with 574 indexers, and none of the ones I use are private. All of mine are public indexers, you just have to know the names of some popular torrent sites. I discovered half the indexers I use from people on r/Piracy (before the migration) talking about how much they like how they work. That’s how I found Idope, Knaben, and Torlock. Others, like 1337x, Nyaa.si, LimeTorrents, and EZTV are all indexers I was familiar with as I had used them personally and recognized them when I clicked into the “add indexers” drop-down on the interface. Barring all that, you could just ask someone else to send you a screenshot of all the indexers they use on their Jackett setup. Here’s a list of the ones I use. Adding indexers to Jackett is basically the easiest part, and you only have to do it once.
Jackett is a program that allows you to configure multiple indexers (torrent sites, like 1337x, EZTV, RuTor, Nyaa.si, etc.) in a single interface, that way you can search through all of them at the same time. Jackett, and another program just like it called Prowlarr, is usually used in conjunction with the .arr suite of programs (Radarr, Sonarr, etc.), but it includes a manual search function that allows you to query all the indexers you have set up in the interface at the same time. That’s exclusively what I use it for.
So, for example, I have 22 indexers set up in my installation of Jackett. I can use the manual search function to search through all of them at once, then I can sort the results by seeder count, publish date, and file size, and I can filter through the results to find exactly what I’m looking for. Once I’ve found the file I want, I can copy the magnet link directly from the search results and paste it into Qbittorrent. It’s an extremely easy way to find files quickly, and it’s much more efficient than manually going to a bunch of different torrent sites to search for a file that might not even be available there. With Jackett, I’ve literally never once had a case where I wasn’t able to find what I was looking for. That’s how good it is.
This reminds me of the time Ubisoft developers decided to have a bitchfit about Elden Ring because it didn’t have any of the same shitty monetization or trash formulaic design choices as their games.
It’s like these developers think that because they’re painfully mediocre, every other studio is required to be as well.
The notification to enable enhanced safe browsing even shows up when you’re accessing Gmail on Firefox. It doesn’t even make any damn sense, this feature only works on Chrome. And of course they’ll never add a “don’t show again” option. Think I might just set Gmail to forward to my Proton account from now on.
Edit: found an article on how to forward to ProtonMail in case anyone else wants to know how. Seems very easy to do.
Huh, it never occurred to me to block the notification through uBO. I’ll make sure to do that the next time it shows up. Shame I can’t use the same method on the Gmail app to make it go away forever.
Reminds me of this song.
At first I thought it was a joke. Then I saw stuff like this, and now this post. Why is this a recurring thing? Is it just some kind of horrible running joke?
Since no one has posted it yet, this site hosts a massive dump of every RARBG release ever, and you can easily search through it. Games, movies, shows, books, everything RARBG ever released is available there. There’s 5 and half petabytes of data there, it’s absurdly large.
Since it’s self-service, I’ll just tip myself by keeping the money lol
Better yet, lock Musk in a room with all the employees he fired for no good reason.
I hate them both, but I hope Zucc beats the shit out of Musk. Assuming Musk doesn’t just back out like a coward anyway
Suggestion: a setting that lets you set default sorting for comments would be great. So if I wanted post comments to be sorted by top by default, I could set that instead of needing to do it manually every time. Been looking everywhere for a Lemmy app that can do this, at least until the functionality is implemented into the site itself.
Good to see someone else thought of this feature. This would make the whole experience so much better.
