I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.
Anyone got good options for ebooks? Currently got calibre setup but only sourcing my books from libgen. Tried using jackett + readarr but the indexers didnt seem great… is it worth paying for indexers? Which ones?
I recommend tachiyomi for manga / graphic novels for mobile, which is where i read most manga. you can get series from a lot of different sites, add custom sources, and locally download. it rules
I got into MAM pretty easily. Readarr doesn’t support text and audio with a single instance, so I abandoned that for audiobookshelf. People rave about calibre but it wasn’t my cup of tea.
althub.co.za has been a decent indexer for ebooks for me. But ebooks are just not as readily available on usenets. And new books are rarely available upon release. I’ll manually download from libgen and import to readarr in those cases.
Z-library is my personal pick, It’s currently on the darkweb, however, you can access it through tor, or with a web browser that uses tor (like Brave). Once you’re in you can generate a personal clearnet link. You can even set up your own telegram bot.

EBook tracker, read their rules then hop on irc for an interview. You can use jackett/prowlarr with MaM to automate Readarr
I personally use zlibrary https://singlelogin.re/

So… I feel ancient just mentioning this, but for literally 20 years now #bookz on undernet has been a solid source for books.
Use something like hexchat, get in the room, search your book, profit. Just got some stuff a few days ago.
Edit: actually, followed JC1’s link in their comment, and it’s a whole guide about how to get set up.
myanonamouse is by far the best private tracker for books, and getting an invite was super easy.

I only found out about it on here recently and I’ve been able to find a couple of quite obscure titles on there.
Including one that had never been released as an ebook Seems someone has scanned it.
LibGen?
