2 is correct

Why are your bags in a sock? Bags go in bags.

Automated book grabbing is very hard imo. I’ve tried readarr and a bunch of other things. I settled on just manually downloading what I want and sending to kindle. There isn’t going to be a good automated setup until indexers get better for ebooks or readarr somehow adds support for irc downloads.

Second stremio. I use the torrentio addon without rd but always with vpns. It’s a backup for me for when my main nas goes down so I don’t want to pay for rd.

Mostly Meet. My family is mostly on android and it comes pre installed and built into the phone app most of the time so it’s really easy to get the older family members to use. I did have to have my Parents download it on their iPhones but they didn’t fight cause video calling the grandchild is important lol.

I’m not the guy you asked but I do the same thing. In the tailscale dashboard you can set up a default DNS for every device that is connected to your tailnet. They support nextdns and a couple other things. I have mine pointed to my personal adgaurd home server that is within my tailnet and it works great. I used nextdns for a while but didn’t want to pay for it. It also worked great with tailscale.

I’ve been on Linux for a while but this shit is starting to make my wife ask about switching over. Which is something I never thought I’d see.

OpenBooks by Evan buss on GitHub. It’s an irc based downloader and I have been able to find even the most obscure stuff with it. At least so far.

I’ve noticed that the compact mode doesn’t show ads.

I don’t, no. I’m on the android train but my mother in law is all apple. She adds books from her phone then they are there to read on her iPad when she goes to bed.

Zlibrary / libgen and just open the files in apple books. Works across devices for me.

I was very close to closing on a house in rural midwest but I checked isp’s and every one available had caps so I just stayed away.

If you’re pirating stuff I wouldn’t let a data collection group just set shit up in your apartment. No idea what they know but imo it isn’t worth the risk.

Between this and Madison’s tweets I hope the good people can get out and the company dies.
