Sonarr vs ToolJet: at a glance
What is Sonarr?
Sonarr's 5.0 builds keep cycling through tester feedback toward release.
Sonarr is iterating on 5.0 builds while 4.0.x receives only occasional patches. 5.0.0.2569 removed Basic Auth, defunct IMDb lists and Kometa metadata; 5.0.0.2608 fails executables and risky files by default for most indexers. 5.0.0.2635 follows with UI changes from Discord feedback, disabled response caching on authentication endpoints, and fixes for calendar search, bulk tag removal and color-impaired mode.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet's latest tags are maintenance; the AI Builder features still wait on beta.
ToolJet ships near-daily on an LTS line for fixes and promoted features and a beta line for larger work. The newest LTS tag, v3.20.246, fixes uneditable rows in the 'Add new rows' popup and adds Tabs tests; the newest beta, v3.21.78, only adds security guideline docs. The substantive recent LTS changes were keyboard accessibility across widgets, a SCIM filter fix and v2 APIs for workspace user metadata.

Sonarr
5.0INFRA · APIS
Sonarr's 5.0 builds keep cycling through tester feedback toward release.
◆ Current state
Sonarr is iterating on 5.0 builds while 4.0.x receives only occasional patches. 5.0.0.2569 removed Basic Auth, defunct IMDb lists and Kometa metadata; 5.0.0.2608 fails executables and risky files by default for most indexers. 5.0.0.2635 follows with UI changes from Discord feedback, disabled response caching on authentication endpoints, and fixes for calendar search, bulk tag removal and color-impaired mode.
◆ Where it's heading
5.0 is a hardening release: legacy auth and integrations gone, safer handling of what downloads may land, and a new UI being reworked in public. Three builds in four days, each answering user feedback, point to an active testing phase rather than a long-lived branch.
◆ Prediction
Expect more 5.0.0 builds with UI polish and fixes; when 5.0 replaces 4.x as the default track is not clear from these entries.
ToolJet
6.3INFRA · APIS
ToolJet's latest tags are maintenance; the AI Builder features still wait on beta.
◆ Current state
ToolJet ships near-daily on an LTS line for fixes and promoted features and a beta line for larger work. The newest LTS tag, v3.20.246, fixes uneditable rows in the 'Add new rows' popup and adds Tabs tests; the newest beta, v3.21.78, only adds security guideline docs. The substantive recent LTS changes were keyboard accessibility across widgets, a SCIM filter fix and v2 APIs for workspace user metadata.
◆ Where it's heading
Enterprise readiness remains the common thread: a v2 external API growing one resource at a time, identity-provider fixes and accessibility work. AI Builder attachments, GPT-6.1 Sol and tighter metered Cloud limits still sit on the beta line.
◆ Prediction
Expect AI Builder attachments, GPT-6.1 Sol and the new plan limits to reach an LTS tag, as AI Builder release 3 did. More v2 admin endpoints are likely along the way.
