Just a PSA.
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.


Quick! Someone add it to Open Slopware!
Man this list is depressing. Good to have handy though. Sad to see SearXNG and a few others on here.
Seriously… kitty, rawtherapee, keepassxc, python, the freaking linux kernel!
Did you read about kernel they are experimenting with using it for reviews. They have some prompts for LLM to catch issues before it gets to maintainers so it frees up time. Don’t see an issue if that is all it is.
It might be, but for some people that might, understandably, be already bad enough, a line in the sand if you will.
I’m reminded of this statement about LLMs and the kind of people who use them in the first place. It’s an early indicator that quality (and sovereignty) of the software is going to go the incline down.
Searxng? Fuck, guess I’m just not pulling a new container.
There is this that popped up the other day, but I haven’t looked into it at all to see if it’s vibecoded or not: https://github.com/fccview/degoog
Thanks, will dig into this!
Booklore is listed as an alternative to Calibre 😭
Wait Calibre is there??? Oh my god no.
Fortunately this exists
Damn it!!! 😵
That list is depressing
@lambalicious @jasonweiser Not sure seafile should be listed as an alternative. We couldn’t include it on Debian due to copyright sketchiness/plagerism…

Geez… problems never end, do they.
I’m barely active in Codeberg. Unless someone beats me by, say, end-of-month, I might file an issue about it; that said, I’d like to be able to offer at least one (1) functional alternative rather than simply +1’ing to the complains that this or that is Never Good Enough.
@lambalicious Syncthing is what I replaced seafile with, fwiw. Works great!
