Go into your torrent client like qbittorrent settings and you can enter unwanted extensions, *.scr, *.exe, etc. Same if you use a usenet downloader like sabnzbd or nzbget. Then if sonarr or radarr attempt to download an unwanted extension your torrent downloader will not download it.

I’ve been self hosting for about 2 years now. I never gave Plex a thought. I immediately went with Jellyfin and setup tailscale for remote access and its been awesome. We have our phones and tvs with android boxes all connected. Only we use Wholphin on the android boxes bc its better but extremely happy with the Jellyfin/Tailscale setup.
