Why so many *arr services? Why not 1 service that works with all media types? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I am almost done building my first self hosted streambox through Docker. That's a total of 16 instances, each fulfilling 1 specific role.

As I'm new to the *arr world, could you please help me understand why it is standard to deploy multiple *arr services for each media type (ex: readarr1 for books + readarr2 for audiobooks) instead of using 1 that does multiple media types?

Thank you.

In the software world, based on personal experience and the UNIX philosophy, software should aim to do one thing and do it really well.

Then there are also the bloat complaints (why should I download a whole stack of arr services when I only care for movies)

The most unfortunate one however can be them mixing. If my child looks up Star Wars but instead the suite ends up downloading a Star Wars porn parody.. that’s just.. bad

Star Whores is a masterpiece, don't disparage it

It's got nothing on Super Hornio Bros, though.

The bobs burger porn parody is a piece of cinematic perfection.

My all time favourite is the girl doing pterodactyl position, dressed as a pterodactyl.
