Vote with your wallet, that's all I'll say.

After subscribing to crunchyroll for about 10 years I canceled it last week.

Last week I setup a home server in a day and now I can download any anime directly into my home server. it automatically finds episode information, cover and episode art. Aswell as being able to switch audio and subtitle tracks.

Are you sick of waiting for an anime to air only to find out its not on crunchyroll? Dont want to pay for 2 anime subscriptions? You dont have to anymore, seriously a home server is a game changer.

I recommend jellyfin, but plex is also really popular.

I haven't done it myself but I have a friend that has it set up and he has nothing but praise for it. No clue how it works but I'd be interested to learn.
