  • Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirates life for me!! Recent streaming services, prices and shows getting butchered, finally decided its time. Here's how a basic self-hosted 'Netflix' would look like. Fully automated once its setup. Using only a makeshift homelab server from second hand parts.

    Mylar - Equivalent to Readarr, but for comic-books. Also, less intuitive to use. Source: about 1 year ago
  • What are your top self hosted services that you are very satisfied with ?
    You might want to look into Mylar3 and/or Threetwo. I've only tried Mylar3 myself, and I believe it did download a comic or two, but based on some other comments in this thread, it sounds like it's hit or miss for reliability. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What are your top self hosted services that you are very satisfied with ?
    I've got a pretty small archive, so currently manually managing it. But I had bookmarked Threetwo to look into later. It might just automate acquiring comics though, like Mylar3. (Although Mylar might also be able to manage comics, but I haven't dealt into it too much). Source: over 1 year ago
  • What Are The Coolest Virtual Machines You Currently Run 24/7?
    Mylar3 and Kavita - To download and read comics. Running on a Win 10 VM because I got it all setup before I started getting into Docker. Mylar downloads the comics and Kavita is a nice web UI for reading them. https://github.com/mylar3/mylar3 https://github.com/Kareadita/Kavita. Source: over 1 year ago
