fair enough. containerization certainly did not come across as intuitive, even going through the docker tutorials. I try to be patient with myself at learning new shit, and even now I still am baffled.

as with all things computer, after rambling about my problem in here, it gave me an idea and now I think I have the binding configured in qbitt... so now I'm onto setting up accounts/group permissions for radarr and sonarr.

I'm trying not to rush myself and to use "best practices" instead of like "dirty" strategies, like making everything root. also, I take lots of "done for the day" breaks with this project to keep from getting frustrated and taking a big swing out of impatience.

i am super excited for the quality profiles to kick in and start upgrading my existing library. I've been at this for so long, I have lots of stuff that is 480p. I'm gonna have to configure some kind of "do this at night only" guardrails for a while once it's going. I'm setting it up for minimum 1080p.

also prob gonna have to start working my way into some private trackers once my weak shit runs dry.
