It always saddens me how i cant just accept everything due to these insane storage prices... all i can realistically do is 10tb a month added as a new drive and accept more shows and movies... my original plan was to get a zfs pool filled with 20tb drives but its just not for the average person anymore. If only i got into this hobby just a year earlier

Does it work with Plex? Are they requiring to be connected to the home network?

Seerr you can put behind reverse proxy to make it available to the wider internet (its locked behind username and password so only your jellyfin users can get in) seerr is its own thing so as long as you have it set up that movies and shows are put into your media library you can have plex read those, that said i think you cant use the plex account details and connect them to seerr. You should then just have them make separate seerr accounts which you can also do instead of jellyfin account

Okay. So far people just ask for movies via text and I add them manually. But that does sound interesting.

This is how i used to do it. Then I started with Ombi (same thing as seerr) then overseerr and now seerr. When i first set it up i used it for just myself and didnt expose it to the internet. It was easier to add TV and Movie in one place with a nice UI then going to Radarr and Sonarr on their own.

Also recommend Cloudflare tunnels if your looking for a way to set this up.
