I'm on a bunch of private torrent trackers where retention is excellent. Jackett is interfacing with those trackers and exposes a unified "Torznab" endpoint that Sonarr and Radarr use to autograb whatever I'm interested in. Those in turn send their match to qBittorrent and get notified when a download is finished, and hardlink (very important to save time and hard disk space) the result to a destination folder in a nicely organized fashion. That folder is observed by Jellyfin, which matches the name with The Movie DB to show cover images of shows and movies.

I used to perform a manual search and pick the right release for me. Nowadays, my filters are good enough that I just add whatever is supposed to be released in the foreseeable future, and the setup is doing the rest.

I'm also archiving whatever I'm watching long term on a local 4x18TB RAID-5 NAS

It's crazy how well this software collection works in unison.
