I'm sure a lot (the majority) of people who are interested in selfhosting block ads. Need a different business model.
On the other hand a lot of people interested in selfhosting appear to have cash to throw around on their hobby. Might be better to

Email list tracking is much worse.
It gets me riled up because every email list does it. Even when I know that the people who run it have no interest in it. Non-profit, non-creepy organizations have it turned on by default. They may not even be aware of it.
It turns me off the whole concept of email lists because I have to be on guard to not click any of their links by mistake.
ublock doesn't seem to strip refers. Try clicking this and see the URL bar: http://yahoo.co.uk/?illusionist
I didn't ask the admin, I am asking the community for a sanity check
Yup the only place to post it. :D
Well it looks like just what I wanted! I'll put it on my "when I get comfortable with Docker" list. Which due to it's rapid growth, is becoming a "reasons to get comfortable with docker" list.
Looks pretty new, since June or July this year. I will admit I am suspicious of projects making claims like "Learning curve ✅ None". I find they tend to assume a lot of prior knoweldge. I will check it out in a while, I think.
BTW the link you posted has tracking, not sure if that was on purpose.
So do you add the books in bulk to the library then use the iOS app to scrape and apply the metadata?
In a physical archive, effort is made to retain as much original relation between the materials as possible. The order of books on a shelf, items placed inside other items, etc. If there is an envelope containing a bunch of press clippings, notes, photos etc, you don't disassemble it to be filed by date and type, completely apart from each other. You keep them together, in order.
Not just unpopular but also personally conflictual. You might want to just lurk for various reason. health concerns, pending life changes, personal issues. Or a comm that is local to you.
There are all sorts of things which as value-neutral ephemeral whims. Sometimes you vote based on agree/disagree, or based on the quality of the comment, or just based on your mood.
in theory if you wanted to you could use hardlinks to retain the original file structure while also having a nicely organized version available. most of the Arrs support this although TBH I do not trust them with the files I wish to preserve in this way. Since there's not too many of them I just zip up copies of anything I want to retain exactly and let the software work with a duplicate. And hardlinks of course would still be subject to editing like retagging.
Of course if you are accustomed to your library being organized in this manner and it suits you, then there is no reason to change. :)
I tried beets but it takes so long to do any task. Even if I just ask it to look up 1 album. beet import /path/to/album I got frustrated trying to learn it.
Was surprised about being unable to find any --verbose argument so I could at least see what was going on. Does it just take forever to do anything?
IN FAVOR OF OPTING OUT
Public voting is one of my least favorite features of lemmy/threadiverse.
I don't know if it's possible to have a federated network where votes are totally private but it would be a strong preference for me. I thought there were already some tools instances could use to protect their users privacy?
If it is implausible to totally obscure it, then I think we need more user controls to avoid accidentally voting for something that leaves a breadcrumb trail about you. Such as reminding new users their votes are public, having an easy way to see overview of all your own votes, option to remove the vote buttons from the UI, being able to unvote all your past votes (which would still be imperfect of course).
I heard of a test that makes sense, minimally. If you reverse the vote of every single person, the opposite party should win. Apparently there are ways of organizing it where that isn't the case.
