Hey ya all,
Reiverr is a project of mine that I’ve decided to release to the public today. It’s a self-hosted website similar to the content discovery app Overseerr, with the added features of managing and watching your content library through Sonarr, Radarr and Jellyfin integrations. The motivation behind the project was the lack of a unified modern UI that could be used to discover, manage and watch content in a single place.
Currently, the project is in very early stages of development, but it is mostly usable in its current state. If you want to try it out, you can find the installation instructions in the project’s GitHub page:
https://github.com/aleksilassila/reiverr
Also: For the project to reach its fullest potential, it could use contributions! If you’d like to contribute code, designs (I’m not a UI designer, please help me), documentation or anything else, first of all, thank you!, and you can find an extensive list of planned features & fixes at the Reiverr Taskboard. It’s also a great place to just get a sense of what’s being done if you’re curious.
Cheers guys!
This looks very cool. One of my biggest issues with Jellyfin is its UI. So I just stay with Plex. There are some other features that keep me in Plex but it’s mainly the UI. I’ll be starring this and keeping an eye on it! Well done.
For me it’s remote streaming. I have friends and family on my plex and it’s so easy to get them going. Getting jellyfin isn’t even possible on devices they use along with even making remote streaming work and having them be able to figure out how to make it work
This is also my gripe with Jellyfin, sharing libraries and movies to any people is a big deal something Plex is good at.
I prefer the simpler Jellyfin UI; Plex has too much going on.
Yess the Jellyfin UI is so buggy, don't know why...
