Prowlarr and Jellyseerr are two tools you use together.

Prowlarr is an index manager, for Radarr and Sonarr. With Radarr and Sonarr, generally you’d have to provide individual indexes (in the case of torrents, trackers) for each individual instance of Radarr and Sonarr. With Prowlarr, you basically have a central database of trackers, organized by tags (like movies or TV shows), that will then feed that information to Radarr and Sonarr.

Jellyseerr is like the requesting interface. If you want to watch a show or movie, you place a request with Jellyseerr, that gets sent over to Radarr or Sonarr, and then either instance will then search for the content using the indexes provided by Prowlarr. Radarr or Sonarr will then begin the download, and then organize it within your media files.

Getting onto MyAnonaMouse was the best thing for me for audiobooks. They have open applications once every week I think, and they have most of the audiobooks I ever need, and many that I didn’t know I needed.

I use Alpine Linux for my home server. I chose it cause it runs very well on my raspberry pi 4 NAS/media server. I can leave it running for a long time, and I won’t have issues with it. Pretty easy to install applications and run docker containers. Its very lightweight and efficient. The only issues I have with it is that sometimes packages won’t be available for me due to running an ARM CPU. Usage is slightly different than something like Ubuntu, slightly different commands and such. You’ll also have to install all the applications You’ll need. I only need SSH access to it, i don’t have a GUI or desktop for it.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but isn’t this the idea behind WebTorrent? You can play a movie while its downloading from a torrent.
