Real question is, why Jackett instead of Prowlarr? 😄
Yeah no worries - I discovered Prowlarr from that exact same comment years ago so jumped at the opportunity to post it here 😆
Looking at linuxserver/jackett
on Docker Hub, it seems it indeed update everyday.
I’m not receiving daily updates from my gotify server, where watchtower reports the updates. But I guess it makes sense if it has some sort of automated build process. I’ve added the environment variable not to be updated by watchtower and I will keep an eye on it.
You can also tell watchtower to cleanup images after update so you don’t end up with all of those old ones.
docker image prune
IIRC, a normal prune doesn’t get rid of those, only the --all prune does that. The normal one only erases images that aren’t associated with any container.
Presumably because it updates daily
I believe Linux Server builds images every day for most of their containers, even though there has been no code changes.
If the code doesn’t change, the resulting docker image will have the same hash, and a new image won’t be created

Jackett is literally just releasing a new version every day
