What's New

Requests Tab — Background Caching

The Requests tab now caches your discovery pool to the database, so after your first visit it loads instantly — even after server restarts. When the cache gets stale (6+ hours), the old results are served immediately while a fresh pool builds in the background.

Massively Expanded Discovery Pool

The candidate pool before library filtering has grown significantly:

  • Genres: Top 8 genres × 10 popularity pages + 5 vote_average pages (hidden gems pass)
  • Keywords: Top 20 keywords × 3 pages each
  • People: Top 20 actors and 12 directors (movie + TV)
  • Trending: 5 pages each for movies and TV
  • Anime: 8 discovery pages
  • Pool storage: Increased to 300 top picks / 400 movies / 300 TV / 150 anime

The new vote_average-sorted pass is specifically designed for large libraries — it surfaces well-regarded films that didn't trend mainstream and are more likely to be missing from your collection.

Added a note that your first visit may take a minute to process while the pool builds.
