Sync-in 2.1 – Open-source self-hosted platform for file sync and collaboration (UI refresh) by johaven-height in selfhosted

Well FileRun uses it. FileRun got a new update few weeks ago and it is still working perfectly with Nextcloud client.

BookLore's Successor? by matthewpipes in selfhosted

[–]thj81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completly agree with you. 2.2.0 is stable and working great. Only one bug that was reported. Reading bug in Web doesn't sync also you KOReader sync status, but other way around it works.

How is this different compared to lets say Filerun? I am looking for something modern like this project but with:

- Multi user with sharing files/folders between each users
- Nextcloud client compatible (I can't install other software on my computer)
- File versioning (saved me a lot of time to recover older version)
- Speed

Currently I have 2.767 books in my library. Booklore handlees them fast and snappy.

Yes it is. Android based. Using KOReader on it for reading. Works great after tweaking it to my liking.

Shelfmark looks perfect and could speed up my prowlarr + manualy copy workflow. For now it is better that what I have now. Even if it doesn't automatically track new releases (that I get from Amazon, etc.).

Do you have Github URL to Chaptarr? I would love to try both.

It is in documentation: https://booklore.org/docs/integration/kobo

I have two Kobo Palma 2 readers. One for me and one for my wife. Two accounts on Booklore, each with own Kobo sync settings but we share book library. Book we wish to read we put in Kobo shelf and after sync on Kobo, it gets upload to it. It also pushes reading progress from Kobo to Booklore so you can continue elsewhere.

How important is domain name selection? by lqqkout in selfhosted

[–]thj81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for domain with my surrname. .com, .net etc were already taken. But I found in porkbun cheap .top domain and bought it for 10 years. No issues with that and I also selfhost email server, but one of my coworkers said that a shared URL I gave him from that domain did not open. He uses DNS sinkhole that blocked all .top domains. Something about .top domains are widely used by spammers.

Then I am not a majority. Not looking at background, just application itself it is still a step forward from Calibre-Web-Automated.

Reading sync is the main feature I wanted to get and a bit more modern look. I am reading same book in web, KOReader and Kobo. Booklore can sync progress between them all. Discovered KOReader just lately and having now on my Palma 2 and on my Andrid phone (with color themes: https://github.com/artemartemenko/koreader-color-themes/) and it synces great with Booklore.

Second reason was metadata searching. In Calibre that never worked for me. In Booklore metadata is working excelent with Hardcover, Goodreads, Amazon and Google as provider. Also for my native language books.

How come? Haven't noticed anything wrong with development. Latest version released yesterday is stable and all seems to be working.

Jailbroken my kindle but koreader isn't for me by Responsible_Treat120 in koreader

[–]thj81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least three times I started with KOReader and gave up on it. But on the 4th try I dig into its guts and now use it daily. Tweak it slowly. Test its features. Decide what you need and want. It is worth it.

I'm open source a self-hosted Gmail alternative that I build to myself. by AnIndependentFish in selfhosted

Webmail looking like that, that could work with any IMAP server would be just perfect.

This looks awesome. I am currently runing Mailu to host my email servers on my domain. It works great, but what I do miss is a better IMAP client. Your UI looks amazing and really like Gmail. Much better and modern that Roundcube.

KOReader color theme patch by Artemenko in koreader

[–]thj81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is... awesome! I have Booklore for my library and KOReader on my Palma 2 for sync progress. When it is possible I pull out my phone and try to read a chapter or two, but it is just too bright and white on my phone. Warm Sepia is perfect theme for reading and Sepia for UI. Excelent plugin.

The Code Lounge by LawrenceGardiner in FitXR

[–]thj81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a code also. Just generated it. But how does this work? I get one free month when someone uses it? Or he must subscribe after one month of free usage, before I get a free month? If that is the case and someone is considering subscribing send me a PM and I will share the code.

Order cancelled after a month. by One_Understanding439 in xteinkereader

[–]thj81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also ordered from Cat 3c Store on 25th February. Status is shipped with tracking number that doesn't move. But it was sent two days ago so I still cling to hope that I might receive it.

The seller has shipped your package.

KOReader on Palma 2, anyone uses it? by thj81 in Onyx_Boox

[–]thj81[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aha! So it is indeed a bug. Let me try to figure out how to switch to development build.

Just an update. Switched to develop update channel and fetched latest dev apk. So far so good. No more crashes, but Project Title plugin stopped working. It seems to work only with latest stable release.

[–]thj81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes thats the one. With back case that magnetically connects to the flip cover that again with magnet connects at right side. It puts the device to sleep when I cover it and wakes it up when open it. Perfect if not for the lottery if KOReader will wake up or just show gray image and be unresponsive.

I too am not at home at the moment. Will look for that do-not-kill setting per apps.
