Radarr vs CryptPad: at a glance
What is Radarr?
Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.
Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its third build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports, and 7.0.1 lists every audio and subtitle stream per file. 7.0.2 adds Happy Eyeballs connection handling, custom ntfy headers, qBittorrent single-file imports from the root path, and stops logging the Postgres password during migration. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.
What is CryptPad?
CryptPad rebuilt its server and swapped its office engine; now it is patching the fallout.
CryptPad just shipped its largest architectural change in years: a rewritten server published as a standalone npm package, and office apps moved from OnlyOffice to Euro-Office 9.3. Three weeks later a fix release followed with team-deletion, sharing and eviction-script repairs plus security fixes rated up to CVSS 7.3. The product is an end-to-end encrypted suite whose release rhythm is seasonal: one feature drop, then one or two fix releases.

Radarr
5.0COLLAB
Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.
◆ Current state
Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its third build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports, and 7.0.1 lists every audio and subtitle stream per file. 7.0.2 adds Happy Eyeballs connection handling, custom ntfy headers, qBittorrent single-file imports from the root path, and stops logging the Postgres password during migration. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.
◆ Where it's heading
The 7.0 cycle pairs a platform upgrade with deeper file-level detail: media info, import diagnostics and download-client labels. The media info migration was split into batches to avoid running out of memory, which shows the team is hardening the upgrade path for large libraries before a stable release.
◆ Prediction
More 7.0.x pre-release builds with import and media info fixes are likely before 7.0 reaches the main branch; the entries do not show a date for that promotion.
CryptPad
6.3COLLAB
CryptPad rebuilt its server and swapped its office engine; now it is patching the fallout.
◆ Current state
CryptPad just shipped its largest architectural change in years: a rewritten server published as a standalone npm package, and office apps moved from OnlyOffice to Euro-Office 9.3. Three weeks later a fix release followed with team-deletion, sharing and eviction-script repairs plus security fixes rated up to CVSS 7.3. The product is an end-to-end encrypted suite whose release rhythm is seasonal: one feature drop, then one or two fix releases.
◆ Where it's heading
The office suite is the recurring pressure point: nearly every release since 2025 carries OnlyOffice corruption, history or pinning fixes, and the Euro-Office swap is the team taking ownership of that dependency. Splitting the server into its own package points toward easier self-hosting and embedding, which matches the openDesk integration builds and Integration API work seen earlier in the year.
◆ Prediction
Expect another fix release within weeks addressing new-server and Euro-Office edge cases, then a winter feature release built on the new server. Whether the server package gets third-party adoption is not visible from these entries.
