    My main issue is that I use Sonarr which uses tvdb as backend.

    If an alternative to sonarr existed that could also integrate with Overseerr I’d be on that instantly, but sadly there is nothing like that.

    Having to manually handle shows my friends and family want to watch us not happening.

      Overseerr

      Ombi

      The *arr stack is an abomination.

      Your providing a free service, right?.. Dont forget to enjoy it yourself. Unless you serve 100 “friends” like everyone else. Then enjoy the money.

        Neither of these have a backend that would improve on sonarr for Anime. I assumed it was obvious with the context that I meant one that used something like AniDB as a backend for anime.

        I don’t like ombi, it’s always been jank af for me. (also I use jellyseer not overseer to be fair)

        100% facts.

        Ofc it’s a free service strictly for friends and family, people who profit from piracy are cunts and should fuck right off.

        Edit: huh, so medusa does support using AniDB as a backend. I seem to remember it didn’t or that there was some issue with it.

          Wasn’t obvious as I only saw thetvdb and don’t watch anime. This isn’t a unique issue for anime though. It’s an ancient problem at this point and without a simple solution.

          Perhaps it was added later.
