~~Setup~~ Set up my audiobookshelf server successfully. Also, just realized that the Synology NAS that I’ve had running for a couple of years now without really using it much, can be mounted onto my Debian server, that I use a lot, as a mass storage and will work just fine. Mind blown. I now have plenty of storage after struggling for a while. Lmao.
I've been meaning to do this for a while. Do you put ebooks in it too, or just audiobooks and podcasts? I've been using BookLore for my ebooks, and really like it -- I just wish it was a little faster.
Strictly audiobooks. Mostly for my wife because that’s all she listens to. For me, it is 90% ebook on my kobo and 10% audiobooks. Only when I’m doing something around the house or driving do I listen to an audiobook. I’ve also built my own android ABS client that I made to my liking.
