In line with the advice that running as root would likely not run with the correct file permissions (and would not read the correct config files), you probably want to run castget as your desktop user. Something like sudo -u mydesktopuser -n – castget -c

I see. I’m the only user and the .castgetrc file that I edit for the RSS feeds is located in home. The castget command works in terminal when I type it, but it may not if cron does it? Would that be because cron installs as root? I’m on Cachyos and had to install cronie as cron wasn’t preinstalled. If it doesn’t work I’ll try your suggestion. I know -u is for user, what is -n – in this case?
