Doesn't quite vibe with the post, but with the title: More industrial software and operators manuals and stuff. I'm honestly having a hell of a time finding them.
I need people to submit more of the research papers that I need to be able to read to lib Gen or sci hub

Some kind of watch list feature for Jellyfin.
Or, a self-hosted universal watch list for both Jellyfin and any platforms I may use from time-to-time. In the past I've resorted to compiling a massive table, but now I just have an account on JustWatch. Obviously doesn't show me anything from Jellyfin, though.
Other than that, I feel like we need to teach others how to pirate themselves. I'm often the one that friends and family come to to get books, streaming links, software, etc. Its surprising how little people understand how torrenting actually works at a fundamental level.
This is possible using Trakt. Add a movie or series to your watchlist, sonarr & Radarr sync from this list and add to jellyfin.
There's also a plugin in jellyfin itself for Trakt that can report back to say when you've watched it I believe.

A way to fairly pay the original content creator.
If I really enjoy a movie, series or music, I often actually want to send the actual creator some money to reward their creativity. May be just a dollar, may be ten. But I can't.
I wish anime/manga/etc studios were transparent about their costs and profit. I want to see if my favorite show has so far made enough money to afford the next season or for the team to afford their next project.
Kickstarter/Patreon should have shown creators that people will support what they like and even if they have made enough money people will continue to buy/donate to creators they love.
But I can't
You sure?
I don't pay for movies or series of (I just don't). But when I like some music (bands, producers, or even a record label) I end up buying some physical records or merchandising. If you don't care about that, the most direct way is to go to Bandcamp and buy something on friday. People often want to put a price on their work, and not just "a dollar" like it's your spare change, but there are several options and websites to do it.
With games I do the same but in Steam.

The ability to financially support those one would leech off of (both bandwidth & sourcing)... Nothing mandatory, but perhaps being able to post a bounty for particular hard-to-find material, or for someone to seed a dead torrent.
A live broadcast open p2p protocol
I can’t remember the name now (and struggling to find it) but there was some packaging of VLC with I think a customised libtorrent, where someone would effectively broadcast with an infohash (sha hash like in a torrent) and people could stream and share with not much latency. Hashes were shared on sites/telegram/discord etc and it seemed to work ok.
Surprised it didn’t become more popular/standardised
I can only find links for acestream but it's not an open protocol. If you have other suggestions I'm all ears.

For TMDB to end their stupid policy of setting broadcast episode order as the default. Any app that uses them for metadata to match files names ends up with wrong episodes because obviously nobody wants broadcast order.
Yeah I want to watch my shows in alphabetical order.
Haha. What I mean is that some TV series have a different episode order on DVD/bluray than what they were originally broadcast in. “Firefly” is the classic example. The TV networks broadcast them out of order and the DVD order is the “correct” one and the order in which pirate TV packs will use. But by default many tools (which use TMDB.com) have the wrong metadata for the episodes.

Better music support. Movies and TV do great through the *arrs and Jellyfin, but music is a big mess.
Lidarr works ok
The app works pretty well but the database it has to use isn't as mature/quickly updated as Tv/Movies. I believe it uses musicbrainz? Either way it's not as standard as the others if feels like.
Well, unlike TV/Movies, typically ALL music is available on ALL platforms, so there isn't a service problem. Spotify and others are still really nice to use for consumers.

I need a server to start again.
I want self-sovereign identity. I want to control who gets what information about me from my ID, and how that data is hosted. I'm aware that there are some really hostile attitudes about blockchain, but I'd like if a public blockchain could be used to host the information, so that the identity info could be decentralized and decoupled from any given provider.
I want control of my digital identity back, dammit.
postscript someone kindly pointed out this is c/piracy, not c/privacy, which I thought it was. Off topic; my bad.
Wrong sub
Piracy, not privacy.
In my defense, it was my last comment of the night, on my phone. I thought I was answering the otheg c/. Oh, well.
More people to get in to I2P.
It needs a modern rewrite atleast in terms of ui but ideally a complete rewrite. I tried it 10 years ago and it still looks just as complicated
I agree that the web UI looks a bit outdated. But it is more then functional and imo not that complicated. Personally I use the container version with podman so idk about the windows version.

What is I2P?
Fully anonymouse and FREE P2P network great for torrenting and somewhat encouraged even.
I wish I could watch sports matches on demand, not just live. And I wish ad-free podcasts were available to pirate. It’s an unrealistic dream.
Some equivalent to *arr services for IRC dcc'ing, lol. I just prefer dcc'ing over torrents, but it's a hassle to manually do it..
