I was looking through the megathread and saw this real-debrid thing. I have heard this name some times so I read what it does but wasn't able to understand it. If someone could explain it to me I would appreciate it.

Also, it caught my attention that "it's a good way to prevent your IP from ever hitting the torrent's swarm, which is the main cause of receiving copyright infringement letters". Does this mean it's an alternative to a VPN when torrenting? Is it like a seedboxes or something? Are there any free alternatives?

Looks interesting, I'll read the git as you suggested - thanks.

Just be aware that it's still very much in beta and the support is not that great (that's how my experience was anyway). There will be a lot of pain of set it up. But once it's set up it does work well for the most part. However I am going still sticking with my current setup on Seedbox with acquiring my media via ARR software and then saving it on the cloud to be served via Plex to myself and my friends and family. Good luck!

I still very much need to get my head around the aar software - something I find difficult as the more I look into it, the more complicated it seems to get.

More than happy to help if you are stuck.
