I use rdtclient, Prowlarr, Radarr, Sonarr and Emby (considering the switch to JF). Because I am using rdtclient with RealDebrid, no VPN is required. Because I use Prowlarr I only have to use prowlarr to connect to rdtclient. Sonarr and Radarr use prowlarrs indexers and rdtclient connection. Simpler setup.
There is also another "combined" service like your mentioned one called Bobarr.
I think it's because the reddit one never stopped running.
