    You could say this about a lot of automation tools. A properly-functioning *arr stack is nothing more than an automation tool. Punch a movie/tv show into Overseerr, the *arrs work in the background with your downloader client (torrent or Usenet), and some time later - depending on your internet bandwidth - it appears in Plex/Jellyfin.

    The convenience of the end result is worth the work.

      No its just not that convenient for the LOE. You know what just requires punching in the title you want? Most private tracker uis. Click download and the client picks up the torrent file from your downloads folder

      Fuck retrovibed has an rss feed reader and you can just click bookmark in a trackers ui and it’ll download in the background.

      I took one look at the arr stack and noped right the fuck out.

          sorry bud but those tools just are not that useful. you’re free to disagree of course but there are better torrenting automation tools out there. im of course biased but shrug
