I’m a little late here but I can explain it.

What Sonarr, Radarr and the others do automatically is scan an RSS feed of new releases. Basically, they look through the things that were uploaded to each tracker, since the last scan, to see if anything should be downloaded. The issue with this is that this only finds the things that were uploaded since the media item (show or movie) was added, not things that were uploaded before then. What this software does (and Huntarr used to do) is run a full search on the indexers, so the *arr apps can find any file that has ever been uploaded to the trackers. It’s the same search you can trigger manually.

Technically, adding a media item, manually triggering a full search once and then relying on the automatic RSS scan should give you the same result (unless any trackers were down while you ran the manual search, which is one of the issues with this approach) but, for example, I use Seerr, so friends and family can add new stuff to my *arr apps but Seerr doesn’t trigger a full search when something gets added, so I would have to manually trigger the full search once every time someone adds something. The point of having something like Fetcharr is that the full search gets triggered automatically. In addition, it does so periodically instead of just once, so that fixes issues like trackers being down when the search was triggered or a download not being found in the RSS feed despite it existing (not sure if the second one ever happens but it technically could and this would solve that issue).

Edit: I also just saw that the GitHub page for this has an explanation as well:

I learned that at *arr stack uses RSS feeds to scan for and fetch updates, so if your indexer doesn’t support those feeds or the feeds or too old (or a myriad of other issues that can come from this kind of system) then you won’t get replacement content even if it exists. This is why these kinds of “hunting”, “fetching”, “upgrading”, etc systems work so well. They simply force the *arr apps to periodically update their content through their configured indexer, regardless of RSS feed availability.

They’re the exact opposite of a fascist…

Can confirm that yt-dlp works perfectly for TikTok videos

Thank you for telling me about Podlet. I’ve been using podman-compose for all my containers but I’ve thought about converting them to systemd units. The only thing I’m unsure about is whether it’ll still be easy to access the container files. Currently I have a containers folder with a folder for each service inside it. Inside that, there’s the compose.yml and the folders with the container data. I map all container folders, with data that needs to be kept, to a folder that sits right next to the compose file. If it’s just temporary data (like caches), I oftentimes map it to a volume because it doesn’t matter if I lose it. Do you know if I can still do it like this (or in a similar way) if I use systemd units?

I use podman too and I set up hardware acceleration for Jellyfin. I’ll update this with how I did it once I’m home.

Edit: Here’s my compose.yml (I use podman-compose):

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
    container_name: jellyfin
    dns:
      - 9.9.9.9
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config:Z
      - ~/drive/media:/media:z
    devices:
      - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
    ports:
      - 8096:8096
      - 7359:7359/udp
      - 1900:1900/udp
    restart: unless-stopped

I’ve used it when I started out and it’s good, I can recommend it if you just want something where you can hit install and it works. I just use docker containers now though because I have more experience and it allows to set everything up exactly how I want.

Pretty sure Vencord is what’s used now. It’s what I use at least because it’s preinstalled with Vesktop.

On my phone I still use LibreTube but with the option to load the video directly from YouTube (essentially doing what NewPipe is doing) and on PC I just use YouTube’s directly. I still use Piped to keep my subscriptions synchronized tho.

My parents bought Xiaomi TV box (could search for the exact name if anyone’s interested), which runs GoogleTV (Which is just AndroidTV, they renamed for some reason) and comes with a remote. It even has hardware acceleration for AV1 playback. Downside is of course that it has all the Google spying shit and ads in the home menu but at least it works well and you can use all the apps you want without issue. Idk if there’s something like LineageOS for AndroidTV, that would be great.

I actually did but in another comment

Honestly, you’re right. I also apologized to OP in another comment. I don’t know why I was so against them when I wrote these comments.

The BlueSky protocol relies on central servers tho, I’m not sure if there’s much that ActivityPub can take inspiration from

They could have also worked to implement that into ActivityPub but they still chose to reinvent the wheel

I really wasn’t trying to attack you or anything, that was just the expression I got from the comments I saw. I guess I also had bad expectations going in because I thought if so many people banned you, then there must be a reason.

I didn’t get the expression that you had anything against trans people but I might have misunderstood your comments on the gender dysphoria thing. You can explain that if you want, I still don’t really get what you mean, honestly.

I still really disagree with the twitch streamer and especially the V-Tuber thing tho but I’m still sorry for judging based on the few things I saw.

We have that, it’s called ActivityPub. BlueSky wouldn’t want that tho, they couldn’t control the entire network then, after all.

Damn, I understand why this person was banned, looking at the removed comments. I mean, they’re not bad enough that I would remove them but I can understand why someone else would and if those are the comments that were only removed, the bans were probably for other comments (I’m just assuming banning someone would remove their comments from that community too). The comment about how gender is bullshit sounded based at first but then they said that it doesn’t exist at all (which it obviously does, even if it’s just a societal construct) and that gender dysphoria didn’t have anything to do with gender. That’s a comment I highly disagree with but IMO that’s not so bad that I would remove it. But the comment about how twitch streamers were just leeching of of the youth and how V-Tubers were just incel bait and that they should be banned just like sex work is really hateful. Entertainment is also valuable in society and using a virtual avatar instead of a face cam doesn’t suddenly make it sexual in any way.

Anyway, pretty long comment but I kinda felt like sharing my opinion on this.

I mean, most other people here aren’t banned on so many communities that we want a way to display all the communities we’re banned on

But that was one case, of course there are some mods that are just shit (or maybe just interpreted things wrong, made a mistake or acted based on emotions for various reasons) but if it’s this many cases, it becomes kinda hard to believe that all of those mods are the issue and not the person getting banned by multiple mods

I downloaded it without needing an account first (You do need an account to use the actual app), maybe just go on loops.video
