Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Have you heard of Logseq? It's a FOSS Obsidian alternative.

Haha thanks, Obsidian has been my study friend for a while and what I write all my modding guides in. Seeing how much people liked this post, I plan to post my full guides now too onto here :3

Yes.

It's a fantastic software. All of your files are kept in plaintext, too, which is important to me.

You do NOT have to pay for syncing, you can pay them for their services, but I use syncthing to sync from my phone to my PC and server. It updates almost instantly. They also don't try to block you from using third party sync options.

Obsidian is a notes software, but you can make canvases like this and link multiple notes together. It also supports mark down.

Yes - the nodes are obsidian pages (markdown files), this view is a napkin-type layout thing that is built in; I haven’t played much with it

That is Canvas

If you arent married to your at home stuff and have an android, take a look at tachiyomi :)

No weekly manga anywhere. The closes I got was monitoring AnimeBytes for manga updates via Autobrr. Since AnimeBytes only keeps the most complete pack of each manga. So when a new chapter/volume is released the old torrent gets deleted and new one is made. So that keeps things easy for adding content… but not removing content to avoid duplicate volumes.

If you find a solution lmk :/

I use kenmei.co for manga tracking. Supports a bunch of sites but not all of them and depending on the site the updates can be quite delayed.

There's HakuNeko.

NOOO NNN IS ALMOST OVER STAY STRONG

No, someone on MaM does comic weekly packs. There's no reliable groups posting manga like how Empire does, so there's no good way todo manga.

I did try both actually, I just didn't enjoy adding another service for people to use, it was too difficult convincing them to use another site and/or app. I just settled for the plex sync that way people don't even have to touch ombi at all. Everything they need for media is contained in plex.

I admit though I bet for others ombi and overseerr are great, as they are great projects, just wasn't a fit for me sadly :/

What's the fun in that though?

I also make my own anime remuxes and enjoy Over The Garden Wall which is now “Lost Media”

Basically yes. You use *arr to find releases and make a copy with proper naming and metadata when a download finishes. On its own, that would not be great as you would double the size of everything. Except you use hard links. Those are kind of like shortcuts, but both the shortcut and original are the same thing. Both point to the same data on disk. In fact, they're indistinguishable from each other. If you delete one, the data remains as there is another link pointing to it. If you delete both, the data gets deleted. Basically they are free copies. You just have to make sure your file system supports them

I run Kavita on my TrueNAS Scale setup. I can't really recommend it, but there's not a lot of similar manga/comic self hosting servers out there.

It doesn't have a feature to auto download manga though. It also won't organize manga based on folder structure - it only goes by file name, which annoys me to no end since I have my library organized for use with Tachiyomi on my phone/tablet.
