If I understand correctly the project, which I didn’t knew, I think the main difference with obtainium is that this one is portable and work on multiple platforms, not only Android. Linux, Windows and MacOS are listed.

This seems promising project, I was not aware of it.

Contrats, a very nice server, my 3rd on the Lemmyverse but this one seems to be the right one who will not shutdown like the two others.

Otherwise there is also litube. It’s not the same concept and thus less privacy friendly but it might be useful too. This is a webview customized for YouTube with an ad blocker, player to play in background and many other functionalities.

Personally, I found Kavita and Grimmory far too complex for my use and also very resources hungry. At the end CWA is just perfect for me. Still have to configure my kobo e-reader to use it directly and this will for sure be a game changer from my current solution which consist in converting epub to kepub with kepubify and then put it on a local webserver that I open through kobo web browser.

Update: Kobo sync configured and it’s just awesome, just adding book to a shelf and sync the reader as usual and hop, everything downloads and progress updated in cwa.

Returned to Voyager that I prefer but it’s just a matter of taste…

In our desktop based application this is more changing tooltip text than button color but I think the principle is the same ;)

A good old hacking blog post, very nice…

So, as many here, I joined Lemmy two years ago following the reddit change regarding their API policy. I always have been rather open-source enthusiast (even though that I became less extreme with years and professional computer science experience, as a student I was a bit more utopist), so Lemmy seemed to me the perfect replacement.

I was not disappointed and, as an end-user, I still enjoy Lemmy better than I had ever liked reddit. However, during the two years that I have been using Lemmy and the grow of the user base, l experienced two instances shutdown, my first one shutdown overnight without any warning and, just now, lemm.ee is shutting down because moderation become unmanageable for instance admins.

So this bring me to my point, since reaction to posts about lemm.ee shutdown, I hear a lot speaking about piefed. Is piefed somehow better than lemmy? Is it right that lemmy communities are accessible through piefed? What are arguments for switching to piefed or to remain on lemmy?

Do you know any good threads, blog post, whatever discussing this, that can help me figure out?

I used Voyager for more than 1 year, I’m happy with it but I will try out summit because I like trying alternatives.
