I use jellyfin to host everything; movies, shows, books. It can tag matadata and id most books fairly well. But do not use it’s built in reader. I don’t know about comics though. I can then easily download whatever book to any device connected to the jellyfin server and use local software to read it.
I usually just use librera reader as it’s open source and highly customizable. But it does have it’s glitches.
I can confirm and I do use this feature of jellyfin. It works great. The reader is unusable. I use Librera for reading. It’s great, free, and open source.
So my flow is biblio, mam, library Genesis, Anna’s. Then to jellyfin folder that it reads automatically. Then I can download that to any device connected to the jellyfin server. Local is easy, abroad through tailscale.
Holy shit that’s commitment.
Also, don’t forget to look at Standard Ebooks for legal, well formatted public domain books. It’s a great site.
The only place I found it was on myanonamouse. It’s a pdf with side-by-side greek english with translations by Richard Fitzpatrick.
Is this the book?
Jellyfin is great but has some issues that can make it annoying. The 3rd party clients are often better than the normal interface. The server is easy to set up. So I can recommend all of it.
Honestly though, just because it isn’t updated doesn’t mean it is not great. I always revert to Clementine myself. Still use it daily and love it. There is an updated variant called strawberry which is updated and works great, but the remote doesn’t work.
All these suggestions are great. I’ll just add that qbittorrent has a built in search feature that is often outstanding. And rutracker is great for music torrents.
I use Doku at work and can attest that it is easy to use and works very well. Even for industrial applications.
Nope. I was in your position with a Pi400, got tired of the poor performance with streaming UHD stuff across multiple devices and went with the ser. I now have a ser 5 and 6, and they are beasts for their size.
I have one of these and it’s outstanding:

Not trying to downplay your point about removing functionally, I completely agree. But I bought a 3.5 to usb-c adapter and it works just as well.
Jellyfin does.
