A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they're all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me...

You re-downloaded your media to get better quality files.

I re-downloaded my media because I misconfigured Radarr.

We are not the same.

Also, pro-tip: When configuring Radarr (or Sonarr for that matter), be sure to define a recycle bin.

I woke up the next morning with all my media wiped. That was in June/July. I'm still recovering.

I had Radarr pointed to the "Movie" folder, then I changed it to the "Media" folder thinking that that would somehow be "better".

Whoosh It was all gone the next time I looked, because it couldn't find entries for whatever it came across, I guess. I ended up having to re-design the whole environment from pretty much scratch. The good news was that since I had "imported" my library initially, I had references to most of the stuff I lost.

That's just bad program design.

My own take on it is that it's, hmm, not really bad design, just unforgiving.

When you see that you're about to make more than X number of changes, Stop.. verify with the user, then move forward.
