My suggestion would be to install Ubuntu server (or another distro) and use it for sonarr, radarr and other *arr apps. I do the same with a old laptop connected to a nas for storage
Edit: look for the trash guides for more information and help setting it all up
Hey, thanks for the answer! Could you explain briefly what sonarr or radarr does? Also if you don't mind it, could you tell me which programs/practices I should be following if I were to go through with this plan no matter how obvious it is. I am no stranger to this stuff but I can't really say I have a broad understanding of it.
Sonarr will monitor a tv show for you, then automatically download it (through linked torrent or Usenet) once available.
Radarr is the same for movie, Lidarr for music, and other arr for other media.
Basically it removes the need for the user to watch for when downloads are ready and click them.
As mentioned, you need to pair your Arrs with a downloader, then optionally with a media server, like Plex, jellyfin, or Emby. The servers function like any streaming services front-end for your client. These media servers can also be paired with overseerr/jellyseerr to help you find new shows/movies to watch based or your history.
