InternetPirate,

Calibre-Web for a web app providing a clean interface for browsing, reading, and downloading eBooks using an existing Calibre database.

InternetPirate,

Calibre for organizing, converting, and syncing eBooks.

DarkTides,

Absolutely vital for anyone who uses an ebooks.

InternetPirate,

I personally dislike it. It has a poor appearance and instead of copies books instead of tracking them wherever I want them to be. However, it is currently the best option available.

Sonarr, Radarr, qBitorrent, SabNzbd, Jackett and frontends like Kodi and Jellyfin. Jackett can interrogate a whole bunch of public and private torrent trackers for you, fetch a .torrent file given a set of criteria (like are there seeders) and put it in your torrent client for you. It does all this automatically from Sonarr/Radarr once set up in them.

I set all this up in my server using my phone and an Android SSH client from my bed while recovering from nasty painful surgery and it’s been pretty solid once I worked out the kinks since.

Please, read the post. Nobody asked you this.

Hans5958,

To be fair, he is right. You would be better to comment on lemmy.fmhy.ml/post/584842.

psykal,

Didn’t ask for this either. Would have been better if you had posted nothing. Take your bickering elsewhere.

digikam for image and video collection management and viewing (also does duplicate detection)

reffugit,

Tixati is an alternative torrenting program that I switched to from QBitorrent.

reffugit,

As the post said, it’s got a lot of details and options you can fiddle with. qBittorent’s got it beat with its search option though. Tixati has that, but afaik, that search only looks for files between Tixati users.

BillyZane,

Plex. I know it’s not the open source option, but I love it.

Princeofspace,

With plex pass it detects intros and let’s you skip them. This silly feature got me to buy a lifetime pass.

RighteousFog,

It really surprised me the first time I saw the Skip intro button on a series I downloaded. It seems to work by analyzing the audio and comparing it between episodes from the same season.
