  • From what I’ve seen it is basically a managed and updated feed of indexers that it keeps synced with you *arr apps. The *arr apps are the ones that do the searching based on whatever indexers they have imported from prowlarr. They use different criteria like media quality or profiles I think is what they are called.

    Searching prowlarr itself would simply provide you with all results from the different indexers, you can filter results/queries if based on different things/tags but I tend to not use it directly myself.

    I’ve found *arr wiki to be really useful when learning how to set things up correctly.


  • If doing a fresh server external, I’d go for debian as base(don’t need to update it too often + stable)

    For apps it’s mostly docker-compose to set up portainer/nginx-proxy then from ther just manage the rest from portainer/nginx-proxy web-ui. ony log on the server for the occasional docker updates / pruning for space.

    I see a lot of guys going the full kubernetes route and it’s something I’m hoping to get into at some point but it seems like a lot to unpack for now.
