  • I like how easy Shiori is to install and the UI is much more responsive than Wallabag (could be a config/install issue) but it does have some annoyances too:

    • No mobile app (I think there is an abandoned third party client though)
    • Session expires frequently in the Firefox extension, requiring frequently going into extension settings
    • No koreader support for e-readers etc

    But it is actively developed and it’s the most promising alternative to Wallabag in my view.















  • Yeah, I don’t mind checking into match threads now and then, but I don’t get the people that constantly monitor them, especially in the larger threads where you can barely discuss anything.

    It reminds me of people that sit on their phones while watching a TV show/movie. Just defeats the point.


  • Personally I use Snapcast as an endpoint, plain MPD for local files, and navidrome for remote access to my library.

    That’s where I’ve been heading too. The snapcast client has been a bit unreliable for me on my desktop though (choppy and stuttering) but it’s great in its unix-like flexibility and I’m sure it will continue to get better.

    Honestly, I hope that mobile connections in my country are one day: fast enough, cheap enough, and reliable enough that I could just use snapcast remotely and get truly seamless self-hosted streaming but that’s still a long way away I suspect.
