The functionality is in the apps. That’s why TRaSH guides work. You’re supposed to make your own custom formats before you use the Servarr apps. The TRaSH ones are just somebody else’s that were put together over years.
You’re not supposed to just use Sonarr/Radarr without customizing your filters first. It’s also not too hard to make your own, if you don’t want to use the TRaSH formats.
I appreciate the advice, but I’m not solely referring to the customization of filtering, of course it has the ability to do that, almost every comment in this thread is about that. The feature I am raising is about syncing community maintained txt blobs, Trash tells us exactly how to sync the guide with Sonarr/Radarr, but not without additional software or manual effort.
Trash may offer excellent filters, but they are incomplete, and do not promote community involvement. A URL pointed at a single source of truth inherently would, this is a popular approach with blocklists all over the web. If a user wants to modify the list, and has to post to a single moderated source, everyone benefits. But currently as a user you either setup syncing orchestration or you manually copy Trash. Neither of which lends itself toward keeping the community up to date.
If you are aware of a way to have Sonarr/Radarr pull directly from a single source of truth and update itself, that would be great though.
Ah, I see what you mean now. Something like that would be nice, but I don’t think it would work for a lot of people. I know I’m pretty particular about the stuff I download, and I doubt a community maintained list would tick the boxes I want. Especially since a lot of people seem to use separate instances of Sonarr for shows and animes, and I combine them into a single one, and then assign formats and libraries accordingly using Jellyseer so that my family can request media without effort.
