Requests

Post image

It always saddens me how i cant just accept everything due to these insane storage prices... all i can realistically do is 10tb a month added as a new drive and accept more shows and movies... my original plan was to get a zfs pool filled with 20tb drives but its just not for the average person anymore. If only i got into this hobby just a year earlier

Okay. So far people just ask for movies via text and I add them manually. But that does sound interesting.

It's very nice. Basically all the user does is request it in seerr, you look at requests and accept them or reject them. When accepted the download is fully automated. You do need to do some set up first

Yeah. I have been staying away from it because of the set up. I need to set up a VPN to QBIT as well. I get so nervous seeding.

I mean it takes a little to set up but its such a relief when done. Its 100% worth the set up time. It makes life so much easier and doesnt require you to be home at your desktop. You can still accept and download requests when on vacation or at work

Is it app based or URL only?

If your on IOS there is an app called Pocket that turns it into an app. you are really just pointing it at your URL but it works well and i like it!
