Other than linking in the filesystem as Grippler said (took me a while to understand soft and hard links on linux but they're soo useful); you can create categories with a default location (e.g. /qbt/-TV, /qbt/-Films), so you only need to pick a category when adding a torrent, and "Automatic Management mode" should save it to the right folder automagically. Also if you don't like the names you can rename both items in the torrent list and/or their corresponding foldernames and filenames, I do all this from qbittorrent (probably doable with other software as well).

Most people give their real full name, phone number and email for any loyalty card wothout batting an eye, plus even with anonymized data it's useful to the owners to track correlation of purchases, time, location. Definitively what you said too, we all make mistakes (some more than others), every needless complication of a system is a disadvantage to the customer.

Should have turned on the ThinkLight at least

Just needed to remake a Z-lib account recently (without an account you can read but not download I think), and an alias from simplelogin worked. With temp-mail services I wasnt getting the confirmation email. And I ain't gonna use my domain for pirating, sorry :)

You can mix and match, even with different speeds, it will default to lowest common denominator. So grab the cheapest fastest you find (because you might use the sticks in another build one day), and test the setup with memtest when they arrive

There are free services that allow you to create countless emails, one per site is ideal, just like one (different) password per site. Addy and Simplelogin have a generous free tier, last I checked the first one allows for unlimited receive-only addresses (when shopping it's very rare you need to respond), the second gives you some two-way addresses.

If you get a domain, many registrars include free mail service, and have mail forwarding, or "redirecting", which basically will allow you to create countless addresses (that can also send/respond) for your one account (You add these "email forwards", or "Identities", to your app of choice, like K9-Mail for android). You don't necessarily need to buy their separate email package (although the interface might be more convenient). I'll give you one example which includes email: OVHcloud, one of the largest clouds in europe.

If you can afford it there are all-in-one services like Soverin with easier interface.

It might be wise to start a slow process of migrating (or maybe deleting and creating again) accounts, and saving all this stuff in a password manager (like KeepassXC) if you aren't already.

I've been surprised by the ease of use and stability of MX Linux, they also maintain a repo with some key packages updated, like Firefox. It's Debian Stable with a few tricks up its sleeve.

Debian stable + flatpaks is a great combo. Sometimes I still wish some packages were more recent (not fun when yt-dlp starts breaking), sometimes I've been let down by their oldness in Debian Testing, and even Unstable (wanted to test Plasma 6 for instance). Overall I'm happier that there's way more stuff in the official debian repos I would have to use AUR for otherwise.

Yep. Loads of unorganized (and some organized) files uploaded over decades via FTP ๐Ÿ˜… a mess full of gems

Apparently the issues are mostly with the outgoing download links from libgen.rs and .st (passing through libgen.lol), including the IPFS links which were being problematic in the past few months already.

Instead I just tried something from libgen.gs which is the one for comicbooks, and it's downloading fine from the direct link.

Thankfully most if not all content should be backed up on Annas-archive!
