I've been a good boy for 5 years or so but the seas call to me. Are streaming sites the way to go now or is torrenting still a better bet for mainstream movies and tv? I'd imagine all of my accounts have been deleted on those sites so I'd be starting over.

I'm super old school and just started finding my way back to torrenting. Would you have a recommendation on how to read up on these arrs? So far I still manually pull my torrents from a search engine and run it through my vpn hardened Pi in the cellar. It works, but I do wonder if there's a more streamlined approach.

Their docs are decent and will guide you through setup. For advanced stuff search for Trash's arr guides

Check this wiki, specially the torrebt and Usenet pages... Then you can wither follow the practical installation pages or ignore and find some docker only guides.

You could probably install a home server management software like TrueNAS Homearr or CasaOS on your Pi and just download the "apps" that way.

Something like this is a good start! I use transmission as the torrent client instead of deluge. Also added a service for my vpn and use that as the network for the tranmission service so all traffic is routed through the vpn. https://ochoaprojects.github.io/posts/PlexAutomation/
