I followed trash guides to set everything up blindly and my set up is working well. But, I feel like having jellyfin in the same docker compose as my “arr” services isn’t good. So, I’d be curious to see if I should split things up. I am even wondering if i should let portainer manage everything.
I created them in the same compose but will probably split them up soon. There’s no point in having them in the same file: *arr services and jacket interact with each other, but Jellyfin is its own thing and I often want/need to restart it alone. They’re best as 2 separate stacks imo.
A mix - my *arrs, Plex, etc run in my “media” stack’s compose, but I have a handful of other stacks (“managing”, “monitoring”, “misc”, “games”, etc) for containers that aren’t related.
This also helps keep networks separate so the containers are only talking to the ones I want them to
i had arr in one stack and media in another.
Now in my kubernetes cluster everything is separated, but arr + torrent is in vpn and automatically uses the vpn-sidecar. And media (jellyfin + jellyseer) is separate.
I have all of mine in their respective directories and have a master script that I run to bring them all up or take them down. Easier to exclude services from start up if I end up not needing them or something.
No Docker, because overhead and depending on a semi-closed ecosystem isn’t cool. Also systemd is perfectly capable of providing all the security docker does by itself.

Why separate it? It’s part of the same stack. Radar downloads, Jellyfin plays.

Use to do it individually. Now I do it all from one Master compose.

I group them by network.

Same.
Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, kavita = Media stack
Arr suite, Vpn, BitTorrent = Pirate stack
Edit:
CodeServer, git, esphome, home assistant = Code Stack
