With agents I am surprised nobody has combined Plex + qbittorrrent + seerr + *arr into one mega app

There is, it was an Android app called Popcorn Time.

Quite a feat considering it was developed without AI help.

There are a million docker-compose files floating around for exactly this that just need a little bit of configuration.

  • You still have to navigate through a bunch of different interfaces. I'm talking about micro services vs monolith

I actually prefer the separation. Limited blast radius is one advantage, but I also think that the media server and downloader should be separate things anyways.

But I do think that there is an opportunity to merge Sonarr and Radarr.

That app would be blatantly illegal

  • How would that app be illegal when its constituent components are 100% legal?

    • Because it's illegal to make a thing whose primary purpose is to facilitate copyright infringement. A thick steel pipe becomes illegal if you fill it with <I'm not telling you what to fill it with> and screw the ends shut, even though none of those components are illegal, because then it's a bomb.
