Gooning.
That's just a modern term for jerking off, I don't think it's niche or weird, I just don't get why it's gotten so popular calling it that way.

I stalk random people on the Internet
I like watching people on the internet. 15y ago, I was using Shareaza, Kazaa, Emule as my music sources. For those who aren't familiar with those software: it's p2p file download. You install Shareaza on your computer, and give access to specific folder to the Shareaza network. Anyone using Shareaza can then download the files located on your shared folder. But, in the mid 00', even more than today, people weren't that tech savy and what happened, way too often, was that a user would give access to the "My Documents" folder or even worse, their whole computer. I was looking for those thoses and I was reading their MSN messenger history, looking at their pictures, their resume, their schoolwork... I was really enjoying learning everything about their life through their My Documents folder.
Fast forward to 2018. All those p2p software disappeared. But I found an alternative: 4shared. 4shared allows you to upload pictures and share them (like img). When you download the app, you can setup the app to automatically upload all your pictures (from your phone). But a lot of users don't know that, and they end up with all they smartphone pictures on the net, with a public settings. I enjoy going to 4shared, looking for those non savy users, and learn everything about their lifes.
And I don't even need that. I have hobbies, friends, I don't have issues meeting women or people, but I like stalking on those strangers on 4shared.
I guess it was on people who shared entire drives, or, can you trick nicotine to go folders above the shared ones? Like
../.When I discovered SoulSeek I did something alike, I saw that I were able to explore other shares of the same user, and then you got me there doing some clicks to see how far I could went.

Yeah, some people share their entire drives, so the people who share system files are likely to have their private files there as well.

Most of those are more of kinks than hobbies

You are right, but gooning is a kink rather than a hobby as well and you didn't mention it to the poster of the most voted comment.

I dunno if it's really a hobby, but one time I heard about bug collectors. They're not people who go around catching insects, instead they're people who go around catching STDs. On purpose.

I met a worm farmer when delivering a package.
I had no idea that was a thing.

This is only the second time I've heard about it. The first time, someone was talking about worm composting (vermicomposting), which uses worms to convert organic waste into nutrient-rich compost.

Wow, I bet they don't even bother warning their sexual partners about it. I wish I had never learned that.

@MattMerk Thank YOU Matthew! Your message made my day 😊 and yes Jellyfin truly rocks!
I also just discovered #audiobookshelf today, which does the same but for audiobooks. I will definitely install it soon…

The concept:
Track sites like AO3, FanFiction.net, ScribbleHub, etc. Count how often each link gets posted Commands to see the “top” links or which domains are trackedIt’s just a rough idea, I haven’t built it yet. Curious if anyone thinks this would actually be useful or has tips for implementing it without overcomplicating things.
