Hey all, more question time. What was the "push" that made you set up your servarr instance? For me, my wife is from a different country than I am. We both paid for netflix but due to region lock could never watch anything together without piracy. I realized very quickly that it was a worthless endevour to keep going with the dance so I just figured fuck it, Ill go all in.

I used to manage my files manually. Once Netflix decided to cancel most of the series I liked and raise the price at the same time as most compagnies removed their content from there to start their own streaming services, I decided that I should manage my own stuff, so I looked at ways to automate everything to make it simpler.

Now I have a beefy setup that I like and is more reliable than having to find which service offer what and having to juggle subscriptions. It's not even about money, it's about ease of use and accessibility.
