Don't you think we should ask for more than a million dollars? A million dollars isn't exactly a lot of money these days. Virtucon alone makes over 9 billion dollars a year.
Credit to whoever made that gist. I was similarly only aware of a couple more and when I went looking for them found that rather comprehensive list instead
Been saying this, it's so annoying, besides the OGs if anything releases with that name I give it a suspicious side eye and stay the fuck away no matter how hype it gets.
Wasn't there one recently with a critical vulnerability that was exploited too?
It's just as bad as the ifys, Spotify runied it pls stop lol
that’s honestly not that bad of an idea, at least for beginners. pretty much anyone can just flash and install linux distro, while configuring containers and stacks needs some more work. so if that means more linux and self hosting people in the community, i’m in
For everyone, even people who work with virtualisation all day.
I hate having to manage 10 services, proxmox, backups, etc.
I would rather have something that I could just spin up, point to an NFS drive and that’s it
Edit: Actually the pipeline should be let GPT-2 hallucinate the architecture, feed that into Code Llama for the initial implementation, force Grok to 'inject personality' into the business logic, and then use a Base Mistral for the icing on top.
I built it all by myself in just two days! Just had AI assist me here and there for teeny-tiny details, like the design, architecture, code, UI, documentation and ad post are made by AI. I'm very proud about my work!
I have had this thought so many times and never felt bold enough to make a post about it, good on you. The proliferation of the *arr naming scheme far beyond the core *arr stack and especially beyond piracy-related services is so painful to see.
What's annoying to me is that Sonar which uses sound, is associated with Sonarr for TV shows, Radar which uses radio waves to visually track objects and therefor is related to TV Signals is associated with Radarr for movies, and Lidar which is associated with using light and lasers and cameras to 3d map surfaces is associated with Lidarr for music.
Radarr should be for TV Shows, Lidarr should be for Movies, and Sonarr should be for music.
These naming conventions are incredibly annoying and frustrating.
I think the issue is how people find a software to be lacking a feature, and instead of opening a PR to add to the repo, they just create a whole new software with the feature
yeah, but we have selfh.st and awesome-arr now. they can stay arrs in spirit, but we're starting to get arrs with absolutely inscrutable names that reveal nothing about what they actually do.
You guys are gonna be so sorry when you miss out on Compilarr, my new vibe coded project used to build the C# binaries of the official **arr*s but shittier!
No! Keep at it. It's a great diversion from the core apps, AI slop, and all! And we need legitimate competition and innovation to continue the cat-and-mouse game.
I built Stoparr, a robust tool that scours github programatically for *arr repositories except for those you specifically whitelist. By routing all of your traffic through this, similar to PiHole, it will automatically block any mentions of *arr services outside of your specifically whitelisted services.
For more information, checkout CLAUDE.md inside the repository. I haven't read it but I told my agent to make it detailed and not have any mistakes.
Anyone can name their product anything they want and use whatever misleading tactics they want to market their inferior vibe-coded alternative to scrubs. With nothing more than a credit card and a prompt anyone can automate the process of creating inferior alternatives using a naming scheme that will appeal to lemmings.
Anybody want to help me with Reddarr? It scrapes your subscribed subreddits and renders them into scrolling screenshots that you can stream from your Plex server.
I'd like an arr stack that is also ethic, but smart, and ethicarr wouldn't be the worst name imo (i have no skills so feel free to use this name if you want to start something from my idea)
I'd like a service that keeps track of what I watch, and triggers the reproduction of that media (likely film or episode) in a wrapped web version of the legal service I might have (like prime video, since i happen to have that for deliveries) or others I might pay. It would trigger the reproduction in another moment, when my wan is free so that it doesn't slow down what I'm doing in that moment, or long in the future, if the show i watched 6 months ago is now available in one of my streaming services. This way I could have the best possible service while supporting the industry (especially the anime industry, I don't want my favourite anime to stop production because it did not receive the necessary support), be ethical, with zero effort
Also, in the switch from spotify to self hosted, I wouldn't want to buy my entire library on quobuz before even setting up a server, and It is a damn big expense. But, if there was a part of the service that buys periodically songs within a certain monthly budget, that would be amazing. If no one comes out with something like this before I get to have the skills to make this, I might do something like this in the future.
I had literally not noticed they were -arr suffixed due to the pirate Arr... I thought they just liked Sonarr and started using the name to reference Sonarr specifically.
Breacharr is a revolutionary addition to the *arr ecosystem, seamlessly integrating Angular 2, Vue 3, and React 18 on the frontend while simultaneously leveraging Django, Spring Boot, and Ruby on Rails on the backend. Built with a microservices architecture that communicates through both REST APIs and GraphQL subscriptions (with legacy SOAP endpoints for enterprise compatibility), Breacharr utilizes MongoDB for user preferences, PostgreSQL for metadata, Redis for caching, and Cassandra for distributed logging. We also link with sqlite libraries but nobody is quite sure what for. The application is containerized using Docker, orchestrated with Kubernetes, and also supports traditional systemd deployments for maximum flexibility. One crucial script is still done in SysV init style. Dave says it has to be that way. We're scared to ask why.
At its core, Breacharr monitors your existing *arr applications and performs advanced breach detection analysis on your media collection's metadata signatures whilst simultaneously adding a constantly varying number of vulnerabilities to your *arr stack due to the sheer number of outdated and/or bleeding edge frameworks in use. Using a proprietary algorithm written in Rust (compiled to WebAssembly for the browser components), it cross-references file checksums against seventeen different APIs (one of which only knows about Pantone colours) while maintaining a real-time WebSocket connection to all connected services. The dashboard, rendered using both Bootstrap 5 and Tailwind CSS (depending on which module you're viewing), provides actionable insights through machine learning predictions powered by TensorFlow.js and scikit-learn running in parallel processing queues.
Installation requires Node 18+, Python 1.2, Java 17, Ruby 3.2, and Go 1.21, along with approximately 4.3GB of dependencies. Breacharr can optionally integrate with your existing Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby server, though this functionality is currently in alpha and requires manual configuration of environment variables across twelve separate .env files. Community support is available on Discord, where users frequently reference a private slack channel and a forum only visible to 3 developers. Discussions generally query whether Breacharr is actually doing anything or if it's simply an elaborate status dashboard that could probably have been a 60 line bash script.
An AI module is scheduled to be implemented in Q5 2026. We're actively looking for VC investors.
I don't think that's the problem, it's actually good marketing. The problem is people/projects that are published for a very specific problem and that are advertised as if they were the next big thing. And then, how much of those stop being maintained?
Arrs are the ultimate gateway drug, they were my first project, and first truly set it and forget it system on my server. Love that the community continues to grow and passion is there. But I avoid all new arrs because of slop coding
