Calibre Web Automated is a completely different project. I am liking it so far.

Some people have also suggested Kavita.

Nope. It’s always safe to ignore any articles about “kids these days”

It’s a Russian project, which some people are suspicious of because Russia has leveraged open source projects for less-than-honest purposes in the past.

It’s managed by a for-profit company to sell their server software, which is generally approached with a big grain of salt in the FOSS community.

They preference OOXML files rather than ODF files by default, which some users (notably the document foundation) consider the more poorly-defined open standard, which benefits Microsoft (who mostly developed the OOXML format). This is some complicated inside baseball and the fork does not seem to be swayed by it—they’ll continue to preference OOXML.

OnlyOffice has contribution practices which are sometimes hostile to the FOSS ethos. The maintainers are not as transparent as most projects, they generally prefer to fix issues in-house rather than collaborate with a broader community on pull requests.

I still use it. Here’s why: I don’t think it’s very good ethics to be suspicious of an entire nationality; the code is open, so what are you afraid of? I guess it’s possible to sneak something malicious into a binary blob, but that borders on paranoia. I’ve personally found the team to be very responsive on issues that I’ve brought up in terms of function and design. When I have brought up issues with the function or design, they have been good partners and been clear in their actions. YMMV

FOSS only thrives because of public-private partnerships; I believe we should reward companies that offer open source code, even when they may not comply with some grand FOSS philosophy. I don’t like purity tests.

OOXML has, for better or worse, become the global document standard. Instead of lamenting it, we should be working to make it the best we can.

Basically, OnlyOffice works for me in a number of ways that LibreOffice doesn’t. I’m not interested in server-based document sharing, but I am interested in good design and mobile support. This fork is only focused on the server software, so I won’t be switching at this time.

Maybe something Jackson 5?

What a terrible day to have eyes

My middle name, yeah.

I love FUTO keyboard. I think you can set up other voice inputs, but I’m not sure. I do know that you can use the voice input with other keyboards. It’s honestly the best voice input I’ve ever used. It works better than Google or Microsoft. It’s faster than other implementations of the same library.

A lot of people have said that the gesture typing is bad, but I’ve never had trouble with it personally.

Heliboard is also a great choice - I used it for a while before switching to FUTO. If you are an open source enthusiast, it is the best option by far IMO. FUTO has the source available for audit and community contributions, and is privacy respecting, but it is debated whether the license is truly FOSS.

The March 13 Reuters ‌special report made public for the first time documents that confirm Banksy is Robin Gunningham. Gunningham has since taken the name David Jones, Reuters determined. Banksy’s lawyer did not confirm or deny the artist’s identity.

For anyone who is not familiar already:

Calibre is a desktop application that has some file hosting/syncing features.

Calibre-Web is a server software that uses the Calibre library files, but can operate independently after setup.

Calibre Web Automated is a server software based on Calibre-Web with an overhauled UI and many additional features including automated ingest, OIDC, KOsync, file conversion and fixing, and more.

I don’t personally use it so I don’t know if it depends on davx5, but you can add a CalDAV calendar directly in Etar settings.

I think I was actually thinking of KashCal, which works with or without DAVx5 by design.

Okay, I found it. I was looking in the wrong place and going in circles instead of clicking through the documentation one screen at a time. How embarrassing!

You are 100% right that it is spelled out very clearly. Thank you for the patience.

Thanks for looking into it. What URL did you enter in the server endpoint? Is it just the HA domain? Or is it another link that I have to get from HA? I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but I genuinely don’t know.

Possibly underrated: CopyParty. Its an entire fileserver in a little over 1 MB. You can host it on anything that runs python and the client can be anything with a browser. It’s unbelievably simple and efficient. If I knew self hosting was this easy I would have started sooner.

For an unbelievably simple WebDAV server, you may want to look into copyparty.

It depends on your needs, as it is not as full featured as some options out there, but it’s one Python file that you can just download and open. Boom. Fileserver.

For Android, you can use any of those on your server and DAVx5 on the phone. That makes it accessible to any calendar and contacts app systemwide. Some apps may also be able to connect directly, such as Etar.

Same. It’s pretty much my best behaved container.

Hey it’s a tough world out there. It’s getting harder and harder to identify fake images, which is why I wanted to explain some of the telltale signs that it is real.

I also have a number of friends who are very outspoken in the Iranian-American community. There are a lot of bad actors out there who are trying to discredit their entire movement because Trump happens to be president. Who else are they supposed to appeal to for an international intervention? They just want to rescue their families.

Zion is mentioned 152 times in the Hebrew Bible, a 3000 year old book. Unless you are also suggesting he is a time traveler?

It’s not a new idea. Read what I wrote above.

You’re right that many people were skeptical of his utopian view of multicultural harmony.

Nope. This map, according to the article it comes from, is constructed (incorrectly) based on a biblical reference (Gen 15:18). Herzl references it in his diary as part of a conversation brought up by someone else.

Herzl himself famously refused to define such borders.

This is abject nonsense bordering on misinformation. Herzl quite famously envisioned a future state in which Jews, Arabs, and others lived in harmony and mutual benefit.

Herzl is also not the founder of Zionism, a 3000 year old concept, but of the particular European branch of Modern Political Zionism.
