At least half my library on both Steam and GOG are games that I pirated, played the hell off and then just bought. Most I don't even touch after buying them, I just do it to support the developer and actually own something I enjoyed.

This is sometimes the case with god forsaken countries like Venezuela, we've had the same prices as US since forever and we're the worst economy in the whole continent and rank among the top 10 in the world, so yeah sometimes is just bad luck or maybe even due to international policies that regular costumers are not aware of.
This is the method I've been using for a while now but since I joined Lemmy and got exposed to more technical things I've heard a lot about jellyfish/Plex combined with other stuff like Dockers and nextcloud (I think), to craft their own self hosted stuff. I wanna try that out.
I'm just barely getting into IT myself so this got my interest, is there any guide or site that explains how to get started on this? I'm also looking to learn more about trackers since I just know the basics of torrent.
For me one of my favorite games is Neverwinter Nights, it's still on sale. The game got a few review bombs back when the Enhanced Edition dropped, but they have made it sooo much better after multiple updates it's a polished gem now. It has a huge community doing modules and campaigns too. It's a bit old but if you like Baldurs Gate you'll love this one.
Also a it on the newer side, this boomer shooter is very fun Forgive Me Father.
And for strategy and management games that sounds more your thing, one that I've played all my life but it's a bit on the harder side is Majesty a really fun old gem.
I believe there's an entire megathread for this, I found it on FMHY site https://fmhy.net/gamingpiracyguide it's way down at the ROMs section. There also this one, which compiles Internet Achive and Myrient for everything related to ROMs https://r-roms.github.io/
