I'm wondering about what your piracy workflow looks like.

Where do you find what shows/films to watch?
Do you stream for convenience or download for superior quality?
Where do you store media?
What software are you using to watch it?
How do you keep track of your watchlist, which episode you already watched or where you left off in a movie?

I have Netflix and Disney+ (through family) and it already drives me crazy to remember where which show is available, download quality sucks, shows get delisted halfway through watching them. Sometimes multiple seasons even are across multiple streaming services. (I was very sad before I discovered there were more than 4 seasons of Adventure Time). I even want to pay for the production of good media, but streaming services make it a really hard sell 🤬

I know that the -arr suite with jellyfin is a pretty nice workflow, but I'm not into self hosting (yet).

Jellyseer is what I use, also allows others to request stuff
I download via torrents, automated with the *arr suite
My seedbox, fast speeds also help with my ratio
Jellyfin, just because i prefeer FOSS
Jellyfin covers that, if i happen do delete some show then Jellyseer still remembers if i finished it or was only partially done

Lots of seedbox providers offer all these tools with their boxes so you dont need to host anything
