Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i'm wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren't mediaservers.

Not really? To the ADHD mind trying to keep the one piece of media you're looking for at the top of your mind while you load an app full of suggestions for other shows and movies is a nightmare, and it's not any more convenient because you're still going to end up searching for the media you want. The only added convenience is when you're not looking for anything in particular and just want to see what's out there and there's a million better ways to do that. Factor in having to instruct everyone to download the app and create an account rather than just go to a URL you can access from any device anywhere and put in your show/movie/song and in a few minutes you have it. Overseerr doesn't monitor my services either, or whatever else I want to do. It's MUCH easier to maintain and more convenient for everyone. And does Overseerr even interact with Soularr or readarr? The functionality of my webapp scales exponentially, I'm not tied to what the developers of Overseerr deem functional.
