I initially set it up because both sonarr and radarr were making their own api calls to indexers and I would get some "daily max exceeded" for certain sites. The idea was that if one host made the calls instead of 2, I wouldn't get rate limited as much.
Now I only have my nzb and pb indexers, the first has no such limits because I pay for it, and the second is only used as a second priority, so I don't really hit limits anymore.
If you have a bunch of arr services, this is useful. But I only have the two, so I don't think it's much work to set indexers up individually.
Edit: this ^^ is my suggestion. Add the indexers manually.
Ahhh ok. I mainly just run lidarr, sonarr and radarr. I do pay for an nzb subscription as well, so yeah dont really need prowlarr for that. I do use torrents as well though. I'll probably keep prowlarr as is at least for now as its all setup and stays out of the way. Thanks for answering.
