Seriously it is some BS. I even spent like mabye an hour setting up the *arr tools and now anyone in my family can log into 1 site, find the tv/movies and hit download and it manages everything.
also, for everyone: i have been looking for an easy way to allow my parents to browse torrents (via an app on their phones or tv or something), then select what they want to watch, and the movies/whatever are then downloaded on a remote pc that also hosts a plex server. they could watch whatever on plex in minutes, ideally. is there something that sreamlines this kind of thing?
I have a little dashboard just providing quick links to sonarr/radarr that people can go to.
In radarr/sonarr they can search for movies and tv shows, add it to the application and it auto searches for the best download option through jackett and adds it to deluge
unpackrr will auto unpack it if it needs it
radarr/sonarr will automatically pick up the completed download and move it into the correct media directory
jellyfin/plex/whatever will pick it up and show it
everything is pretty easy to setup, i probably got it all running in 3 or 4 hours tops probably two years ago and honestly haven't touched it since.
