Great news for open source all around, except for Omarchy. Fuck Omarchy
Just a developer trying to find a better web

DM’d you. Happy to give it a shot.


I’ll checkout Calibre-web. It seems like it does a lot of what I need it to do!


Yeah, I get what you mean. And thanks. I’m going to give the rereading Project a chance to respond to my message, but after a few days I’m going to move forward. I’ve already gutted the AI features, I just need to fix what yanking that out broke and then fix the ui.


I mean, that’s a good point, but it’s a fundamental part of the Fee part of FOSS. I don’t “see” myself doing anything 5 years from now but it doesn’t necessarily mean it wouldn’t be worth the effort. But you also have a good point. They do seem dead, and I don’t want to add another dead project on top of the others. But I am pretty serious about having calibre-like thing that won’t incorporate AI. Does that mean I should start a new thing, or quasi-robinhood calibre into a new thing. I don’t know yet, but I do get your point.


Thanks for this and I see arcalibre too. I’m a bit worried that neither have updated in a number of months now, but I’ll see if I can help out there before continuing on with my own thing.


I loved Calibre before all the AI stuff. I’ve decided to fork the project and gut out all of the AI features. I’m tenatively calling it Calibre- (Calibre minus) just for the giggles. Not sure if other people care about this or not, but an AI-gutted calibre is coming.
I’ve never been much a video tutorial person for this kind of thing. I’ve learned (and continue to learn) on a combination of trial and error, looking at the source of other peoples’ websites, and W3 Schools. Here’s the documentation/tutorial stuff they have on CSS.
That being said, I’m happy to do it for you for no cost (I’ve already got my plug with a Jellyfin server)
I’ve gotten into website making. Like old-school personal website making, not the boring corporate template nonsense. It’s really been a joy to go back to html and css (and JavaScript sometimes, I guess) and make something


I don’t think I’ll ever be done with the internet. But it’s becoming clear to me that the kind of internet experience that I want (no ads, free and open source software, minimal mega-corpo investment in said software) will necessarily require more from me (more technical understanding, more configuring, &c).
Yeah definitely, Nintendo just hates for people to enjoy Nintendo products on anything other than their own terms
