Yeah I switched after Jackett kept having issues with RARBG before they shut down. The biggest change is the fact that adding a tracker to Prowlarr will automatically add it to radarr, sonarr, and the like rather than having to duplicate everything manually yourself.

I did, it was very little time to invest, and it’s pretty cool that it integrates to sonarr & radarr and sync’s your configuration from a central place. Also the web UI seems to have more information and stats if you ever need.

Jackett is for trackers that don’t have a native api or similar but Prowlarr can likely handle most of what you use today.

Prowlarr is infinitely better because it integrates directly with all the “arr” apps (and mylar and lazylibrarian as well) and will set up all the indexers in those apps for you. That way you only need to maintain or edit them within Prowlarr and then it does the maintenance in the rest of the apps for you.

The only thing in jackett that I miss when using prowlarr is support for a selfhosted magnetico instance, because otherwise I don’t think there’s any way to add magnetico as a source for sonarr/radarr. Granted I don’t miss it much because my magnetico postgres DB shit the bed and I’ve been putting off recovering it because my DB is 100 GB and I kinda don’t want to deal with it.

I do like that prowlarr will connect to sonarr/radarr using their API and can be set to sync all the indexers set up in prowlarr into both sonarr/radarr automatically based on which ones support movies or TV shows, so that’s what drew me to it. Makes adding and removing torrent sites less work.
