I’m curious how you have automated/optimized your workflows for downloading, saving, archiving media.

For instance:

  1. On my laptop I download an epub into a folder that Calibre watches.
  2. Calibre copies and imports that epub into the Calibre library and removes the old epub.
  3. Calibre Library is hooked up to SyncThing, which passes the epub to my eReader.

My workflow is probably not the most efficient, but I’m hoping I can be inspired by people’s approaches.

    i torrent video files via qbittorrent from my PC onto a truenas folder on my server (my old PC), which is attached to a jellyfin jail, from where i can watch it with every device i have wireguard vpn installed on. boom. private video streaming service.

    for ebooks, the same thing happens, but i manually move the files onto my kobo libre 2. i don’t have very many ebooks to manage.

    the syncthing idea is great, but i suspect your ebook reader is running android. the libre 2 runs a closed down version of linux i believe.
