Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Is there a good android app thats dedicated to reading epubs from your ABS instance? I dislike a lot of things about the native reader in the native app and was wondering if there is something ('Still' seems good but its just for ios)

I usually use ReadEra for reading epubs (which is awesome) but i like the aspect of having my own cloud, not having to download every file manually and syncing my reading status.

Does not need to be free, I am willing to do one-time-payments for a good android reader app that connects to my ABS.

As far as I've seen, it's primarily designed for audiobooks, with ebooks just being tacked on. I'd advise to use a dedicated ebook service, e.g. Calibre.
