I’ve got readarr up and running, now I need a front end. What do y’all prefer and why?

    Same here, I’ve been using audiobookshelf for a few months now and it’s outstanding.

    Earlier today, I set up caddy as a front end SSL proxy for it, and I think it performs even faster now.

      I just set up audiobookshelf yesterday for audiobooks and podcasts. I tried out the e-reader, and it’s not good enough for real use. It doesn’t save your page, and it’s super barebones.

      As an audiobook server/app it’s fabulous, so I’ll be sticking with it for sure. For podcasts, it’s pretty great, too, but missing a few features like badges for unplayed episodes, and an “up next” queue/playlist that gets auto populated. I switched to it from pocketcasts and the downsides are things I can live with, but I’m excited for when those features are added.

      For an e-reader, I’m going to set up Calibre and Calibre-web, while keeping an eye on Readarr development.

        I use Calibre-web for e-books also.

        For general ‘non-book’ type documents, I’ve also set up a Paperless-NGX instance. It’s working fairly well, but I’m still in the learning curve phase of getting it set up exactly how I want it.
