Back in 2019 some releases installed directly from IGG-GAMES contained crypto miners. They also added their own DRM to releases. Since then I have stayed away and never looked back.
Best of luck with your endless tech support anytime something doesn't work.
A small whiteboard on the fridge perhaps?
If you need to throw in the towel on email self-hosting, don't be ashamed. Mail servers are one of the more difficult projects to run. If you do end up outsourcing this, I recommend SendGrid, it's reliable and free.
hallowed is the internal release group at MTV. Their aim is to produce highly streamable (think Plex/Jellyfin) but still high quality encodes. They also always include English subs and dual audio for foreign films. The quality of their releases are good but very few as they only started releasing under that name about 5 months ago.
However, if you are gunning for highest possible quality/bitrate (and file size) you can get, go with releases by CtrlHD, MainFrame or W4NK3R.

Tixati isn't whitelisted on pretty much any private tracker because of how easy it makes spoofing other clients.
Sorting a music library is a very manual process. Your best bet is MusicBrainz Picard to clean up your metadata then use something like Lidarr and Lidarr Extended to maintain and continue to add to your library.
FraMeSTor is the internal group at BHD. EPSiLON was previously releasing on PHD but left a couple years ago. They release to TL but are not nearly as active as they once were.
I prioritize FraMeSTor, and they have more releases post-2020.
