  • CWA largely removes the need for running Calibre.

    I use CWA for the main book “hub” and upload everything (audiobooks and comics too) to it. Then I have audiobookshelf scan the calibre directory, and Komga do the same because the app I use for comics (cdisplayex) doesn’t sync with Koreader yet.

    On the client side I use Koreader, Lissen and Cdisplayex.

    It works fine but it would be nice to have one app that syncs all progress. And my holy grail is one that can sync ebook and audiobook progress like Amazon’s whispersync!




  • Call me naive, but from where I’m sitting the old web we all love is not only still there but getting better every day with inventions like ActivityPub and the fediverse. The Google feature listed in this article is stupid but it only affects Google users.

    Google and Meta and Reddit etc, have built their own walled gardens garbage dumps, but if you look at what’s left when you remove their worthless fluff, all of the good bits are still there and getting better. Just because the Good Web doesn’t move at the breakneck pace of silicon valley VC-funded startups doesn’t mean it’s not improving every day.
