  • I don’t have as complex a collection but gthumb on a laptop was ok. Or for a while I used a script that made an html page of clickable thumbnails that I viewed in a browser. That was very fast. For uploading from my phone I use a self hosted nextcloud and I back everything up with Borg. I’ll look over your list again since the programs you mention sound way too complicated. It should be possible to do what you want with a few simple scripts on a server, plus a browser or gallery app on your phone.

    I do think being able to have photos in multiple collections is useful. That can be implemented with something like tags.


  • How many are you talking about? I haven’t felt the need for anything like that so far but I don’t have a ton of ebooks at the moment.

    Converting epub to PDF is fairly easy (I think pandoc can do it, and calibre definitely can) but the other way is harder. Same situation with search indexing (epub easy, PDF harder).

    Can you just remote mount your NAS and use calibre or whatever locally? Or just make local copies of anything you plan to read?
