The idea behind the Servarr stack is great, but not every app is as useful as Radar. I removed Sonarr because I prefer to watch TV shows when full season packs are available (I know you can download season packs, but it's a manual feature anyway). Lidarr rarely finds releases from public trackers. Readarr is the same. I ended up with Radarr + Prowlarr + Torrent.

Fair; I may have been overstating things given I only use Radarr, Sonarr and Prowlarr.

I like the Sonarr UI but yeah it could have more control over which things to get and when. I have a hard time getting it to pick the one I would pick. Profiles and quality are good ideas but a bit hard to wrangle. Most of the time I'd be fine with a substring filter and then whatever has the most sources.

Any suggestions for a VPN?

Very good VPN but probably not the best for this usage: https://mullvad.net/en/blog/removing-the-support-for-forward...

If you want one just for torrenting alone, cloudflare warp should suffice. They don't block BitTorrent traffic.

I've been happy with my Windscribe lifetime sub

Second this.. so worth it.
