Can I post more than one image at a time? Share your wisdom!!! SHARRRREEEEE

Not yet. I ran Calibre + Calibre Web for a while before I found booklore, and the key thing I wanted from my setup was for things to work. I was experimenting with Booklore as a “new direction,” and spent a significant amount of time troubleshooting and fixing various broken things from crashes of the ingestion job due to long file names, failure of metadata being written, OPDS problems, etc. I’ve been reading some web novels (2000+ chapters) for a while, so I didn’t check in with the state of Booklore until recently, and now that I’m coming to the end of my most recent long story, I was going to pick back up in my TBR.

Honestly, I like self-hosting and experimenting, but I do recognize that “bleeding edge” isn’t always compatible with having a relaxing experience. In this case, I want to go back to “easy,” rather than “clever,” or “new.”

I just moved off of Booklore because of the recent drama. Went back to Calibre + Calibre Web Automated.

I’ve been putting the switchover on hold for a month of two, and see what develops. Honestly considering going back to Calibre and Calibre Web.

There’s going to be a Skyrim release in about a week. The patient will wake up in the back of a creaking wagon.

Just a home lab for fun and experimenting.

Excellent suggestion! Thank you!

Thanks! I didn’t even think about running a local app, but this may be a fun find to experiment with!

That’s a great idea! Thanks! I’ve got unbound running locally on one instance of Pihole, and I’ve got it in a LXC for the other instance. Using the configs to pull from git would make that much easier to sync.

Thanks! I’ll take a look at those!

Huh. Good tip! I’ll have to test this out.

I have a “main” Pihole on a Raspberry Pi, and I set up another instance in a VM for secondary functions.

If you’re getting something for free, you aren’t the consumer, you are the product. Open Source projects (free as in speech) need some way to pay for the beer (not free). Enshittification is accelerating the conversion of services that have some form of free tier into more aggressively finding ways to monetize those users. Even services you pay for are selling your data, to make sure they can get maximum juice.
