Just a PSA.

See this thread

Sorry to link to Reddit, but not only is the dev sloppily using using Claude to do something like 20k line PRs, but they are completely crashing out, banning people from the Discord (actually I think they wiped everything from Discord now), and accusing people forking their code of theft.

It’s a bummer because the app was pretty good… thankfully Calibre-web and Kavita still exist.

I find an LLM is a great way to shortcut the googling itd take for me to parse random error message #506 when I'm learning a new language but that's about it. I'm also in no way writing software meant for mass consumption.
