Yes I had totally done that! It was just an always expanding list as they tried different extensions.

No issues now with a private tracker, ever.

GoControl GC-TBZ48, 6 years and running, not a single issue. ZWave.

It was actually from https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/OpenSignups if I remember correctly.

RarBG was the worst for .scr

I got away with using public indexers for years with very few issues. The occasional .lnk or .exe, but that was of no issue to my Linux Mint host other than having to manually mark the release as failed and find another.

Recently transitioned to a free private tracker after an invite and zero false positives since. Mostly downloading new releases for TV/Movies, often within hours of release.

Well shit I wish someone would have told me that before I directly connected them to my switch via Ethernet.

They’re PoE, rlc-520a. They absolutely have inputs.

Well I certainly won’t be buying anymore, and I’ll be letting anyone who asks know about my shitty experience, but yeah, you’re right. Partial stop.

I recently added two reolink cameras to my setup. Out of the box, they would not let me assign them IPs, they did not even try to get an IP from my network. They needed to be connected to via the mobile app the first time, then reconfigured for IP. Wasn’t a great user experience even if the cameras are now fine.

Onboarding a networked device should not require a mobile app, fill stop.

This. Having the provide the support is what stops me from dropping plex entirely. I host jellyfin for the devices I control, and plex for my family and friends, all pointing to the same media.
