Alternative to Requestarr for *arr Stack User Requests (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 4 days ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

13 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hey all,

I've been using requestarr via Discord for the past year or so to have a remote user request option for my *arr stack.

Looking to move away from Discord completely and have been having trouble finding an alternate that would run on a more FOSS or secure platform. I run discovarr my local users but I'm hesitant to post that up as a web app for external access.

Does anybody around here know of a program or app or container even that would provide similar or replacement functionality via Matrix or signal or something of the like?

Thanks!

Edit: or, if you're a Jellyfin user or think you might become one: https://github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr

Jellyseerr can be used with Plex as well and it's kept more updated as the overseer dev has not had time to dedicate to the project.

Overseer last update: July 2023
Jellyseerr last update: November 2024

Jellyseerr is about to add Postgres support which is sweet if you run in any kind of cluster configuration like kubernetes.

I don't...yet, but I like doing things like that just for the fun of it. I'm using cloudnative pg at work so that could be cool.

+1 for Jellyseerr / Jellyfin combo

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Jellyseerr has been a game changer. Uses the same user logins as jellyfin and you can set different preferences for each user. There is also an issue tracker. Just right for my purposes.

All hail the overseerr

This. Overseer has been great.

Seems the chapter for Jellyfin has been "coming soon" for 3 years, too bad.

Jellyseer is a jellyfin comparable alternative to ombi.

Jellyseer works with Plex as well.
