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 did this switch a few months back when Readarr really started to fall apart on me. Booklore has been excellent for my normal ebook library, epub, and a few pdfs. The exception being larger comic files which I find it struggles with. I've been using it directly connected via OPDS and it's syncing service to KOReader, and it's been awesome.

    Overall, I highly recommend Booklore at this point!

    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.
