I feel like other streaming platforms will follow the same process as they've proven it's worked.

I host a Plex server that my friends use, they just text me what they want and I'll get it. Is there an official request feature? Or are you just talking about asking the host like I do?

Oh, interesting. This could be useful but idk if I could get others to use it lol.

*arr can also use lists that people make. I have also seen where users can request it in Plex, and *arr will add it.

The requests bit is facilitated by Ombi - https://ombi.io

Ahh, I'll have to look into the options I've been given once I'm not shitting at work. Ombi having an app is quite intriguing. What will I, the host, be notified on if at all? Is it a Plex extension that I'd only see when I go onto my server?
