Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

You're not alone. It's super frustrating when things don't work and you have to search through 4 apps to figure out what is wrong. This architecture makes the whole setup brittle.
Fortunately, there are all in one alternatives to the arr stack. I found a couple, but I think Cinephage is the most mature.
Do you know how it compares to bobarr?
You said it's the most mature, but it's only about 2 months old and coded partially with AI.
I'm interested in this but paranoid about security, and don't know how much I can trust something newish they also has some code the developer might not understand.
Oh thanks, I hadn't even noticed that. I did some research into *arr alternatives a few weeks ago. I found 3 and this one looked like it had the most features. I will look up the other two contenders again then.
Let me know if you find what they are - I'm interested in a solution like this anyhow too.
Found them:
The first one seems to be the most trust worthy, as it's nearly a year old and has sponsorship apparently from Digital Ocean. Might try that one. The UI isn't as pretty but it still seems much simpler than managing an Aar stack.
The second one is also young, but programmed mostly in a language I hadn't heard about (Elixer).
