It’s feasible as long as all the stuff you want to auth supports oauth, oidc, or saml. It might be a bit overkill for your use case, unless you have a bunch of services you didn’t mention. Keycloak has a bit of a learning curve, but works great once you get past that.

OPS, rutracker, or I ask someone to check RED for me.

Aside from what has been posted already, the vast majority of good P2P groups only release on private trackers, some with notices to not repost publicly. There is a massive collection of quality content that is either not available on publics or completely dead and forgotten.

seedhost.eu No bs/advertising with competitive price & performance.

A properly muxed mkv will display the resulting audio bitrate. And if you use opusenc, it will embed the encoder settings in the track.

There are a handful of groups putting out what I would consider decent AV1 encodes. A couple PTs allow them, and there are groups on 1337x. Just grab a couple from each tag you can find and see if they meet your needs. Generally speaking, look for groups which note their source, which encoder they are using, and ideally what settings they used in general.

AV1 has come a long way fast, but in my experience a good x265 encode is still better for live action.

Maybe https://www.srrdb.com/ is what you’re looking for?

Private trackers would be your best bet if you don’t know anyone already.

Good question. I chose it initially because it was open source and way easier (in my eyes) than Apache. I don’t recall the others being an option at the time, or I was not aware of them. nginx does what I need without complaint, so I haven’t switched.

Unfortunately Cloudflare does not do .ca domains. I imagine this is because there are restrictions on who can own one, so it’s probably not worth the trouble for them.

I checked out the main feed, OP. Not sure this is going anywhere based on the content I saw. I have no opinion on the site as a technical work.

Another +1 for gitea. It works quite well and is easy to setup.

It’s fairly easy to add local domain names with pihole, so presuming all devices on your network are using it, you shouldn’t have a problem.
