Is there anything Jackett does that can’t be manually installed to qBittorrent as a search plugin? I ask because Jackett DOES NOT work for me. Trust me, I’ve tried everything even with tech support. Its not my VPN and its not my ISP, because the sites are accessible and qBittorrent is definitely configured to work (and don’t get me started about configuring Jackett, it gets old quick). I just want to make sure I’m not missing out on any potential trackers

      +1 for prowlarr, way easier to set up and maintain and you don’t have to manually add each entry to sonarr/radarr. I’ve switched over several months ago and it’s been worked wonderfully.

        Wait, how does that work? I’ve always added them manually.

    Well yeah, Jackett supports around 585 public/private torrent indexers and trackers. You can view them all on their Github page https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett

    AFAIK there are not 585 existing search plugins you can install into qBittorrent so Jackett has way, way more functionality in that sense.

    The better question is whether you need all those as search plugins? Probably not, you’re likely fine with a few search plugins for the bigger sites.
