Does anyone use Blaze? ( https://github.com/blenderskool/blaze )

I always thought it looked promising, even supporting peer-peer transfer, so in theory if you are transferring to multiple destinations multiple folks would seed.

Edit: ah, ni commits for the last 2 years

Thanks!

Telemetry: I was able to find it, but it was already disabled. Maybe i noticed and unchecked it when I initially setup.

Donate button: Ah, I see where you mean. Interestingly I do not see it when accessing from my mobile device, either as a mobile site or requesting a desktop site. But when accessing it from a desktop browser I do see it in the bottom left.

A quick test shows ublock origin can block the element from showing. I believe that even if the user donates, it is not sufficient to hide this button, and the user must opt to pay for Kavita+ which is a subscription, not a one time license/etc, and forgoing it may lock other features a user is interested in.

I've been running Kavita for a year and a half +, and honestly cannot tell where the donate button is, other than going into the settings and clicking the "kavita+" selection. Maybe I'm oblivious. Can you share what you're seeing? As well with the telemetry option?

The smart playlist editor is also baller for navidrome.

Nicotine (soulseek) -> beets -> navidrome

  • Access to my entire music library remotely
  • A directory structure view, rather than just Album/Artist/Genre views
  • Transcoding while streaming to minimize mobile data usage
  • Syncing parts of my library for offline usage

FWIW, you can partially hit most of these with Navidrome with another frontend. I like using Symfonium (android) which allows local downloading, and has a directory view. I don't think it would work offline though for the directory view. I don't know about caching/downloading on desktop though; feishin is my favorite desktop frontend, but I don't think it has a DL/play from DL feature.

The above is only partial. Thank you for your work and sharing. I think the discouraging comments miss that this was a passion project of yours to fill your own use case. Good work!

Me neither. Is it supposed to be a call of violence like "shorten the lives of the rich to today"? Or "shorten the lives of the rich by the end of today"?
