It has my favorite user interface, but I feel that it bogs down after viewing a series of images. ~~I also feel that development has stalled a bit~~ (edit, I was mistaken: they just released a pre release).

I haven't found a better one, though. Next best so far has been Racoon.

So this whole post is an advertisement, then.

I did basically what you are trying to do:

I installed Calibre docker on my server machine with the DB local (important because the DB won't work over a share) and the book storage on the NAS.

Then I installed Calibre-web docker and pointed it to the same local DB and the same book storage on the NAS.

Now I can use Calibre for import, DRM removal, metadata updates, etc. And I use Calibre-web for user management, OPDS feed, etc.

Let me know if you want more info.

I also use Logseq and I use SyncThing to sync between devices. I just started a month ago, so I can't say for sure, but so far it has been pretty great.

If I'm understanding correctly, Emby has been hostile to FOSS (alleged GPL violations, etc.) and Jellyfin forked from it. Due to that, I'm not planning to use Emby.

Having said that, I'm always interested in hearing about projects in this space. What things do you like about Emby?

Ah, excellent, thanks. That's one of the things I use most in Mint.

It could be that I misunderstood, but I mean something like Mint's feature where you can have it do something like this: "Always rename 'YRBNK PMT' as 'Your Bank Payment' and categorize as Credit Card Payment".

The rails for the lid are pretty narrow, but when I glued them up (using Weld-On 4), they were quite solid.

The main thing I changed on the lid was the lip on the end to provide grip. The original design has the lip extended out slightly from the sides of the lid (sort of wings), which is fragile. My first version of the box had one of the wings break off when I dropped it. The wings are just to fill the space on the box, so I added the space back on the box side and removed the wings. Now the lip is the same width as the rest of the lid, so it's much less likely to break (or scratch somebody).

I made two other minor modifications: I rounded the corners of the lid very slightly so that you don't have to align it exactly right when you start to slide it in. And on the underside of the lip, I slightly extended one of the tabs downward. This makes it so that when you close the box, there's some slight pressure, keeping the lid closed (and giving a nice satisfying click when you close it).

I think my problem is trying to run docker at the same time. Docker messes heavily with iptables and makes it a real pain.

It just didn't make sense. "I'm writing every day" "Haha, just an excuse to not write!"

Hilarious.

I'll take the L and move on, but you can't convince me their comment was any good.
