Can’t remember the last time I heard a ringtone. Don’t even know what ringtone I have. The world has turned awfully quiet in that regard.
As a German, I can confirm: Usenet is the way to go. For me it’s fileleechers (invite only afaik) for German content, and nzbgeek for the rest. All combined with Sabnzbd and Plex. Will have a look at your guide tho!
I have a 2 running teamspeak for gaming with my wife (separate rooms and don’t want to yell) and pihole. And a 3 hooked to a 3d printer running octoprint.
