I feel like lately I’ve been doing more piracy than actually using the content I’ve been pirating. Curating a library has been so enjoyable lately, I’m not the only one right?

Honestly I'm kinda a datahoarder lol so I basically archive things for the sake of preservation. In this aspect I guess this coincides with your point, since many things I pirate I don't really consume, I just might potentially consume, or find it valuable, so I pirate it and keep it lol

It's not piracy, it's arrrchiving!

I recently bought 4x18tb hdds and made a NAS to preserve all the things I love. Even have archivebox on a different machine that saves the stuff to the NAS!

Hoarding feels amazing lmao
