    I’m on calibre web automated but I’m looking to migrate away. Gets tons of features that I’m not using and I can’t keep up with. Also the slop release notes are barely readable. I put up an issue for that, not sure if it’s gonna help.

    I just add a book via the web interface now and then and later download it via OPDS. Probably giving Booklore a try.

      I am using booklore for the same reason as you and it works very well. The only feature I’m missing is highlighting, but I can live without it.

      I’ve been running Booklore for a while now, and was actually looking into calibre-web automated lol.

      I’m interested if it has WebDAV support. It’s maybe a niche feature but I just discovered a great app that has it for backup option.
