Are we talking permanent background tracking? Or sending a message "hey, I'm here"?

NO

DO NOT READ THIS

Just in case this post is real: the world does NOT hate you. Not you, not your people, not your country.

We wish you could achieve the freedom to experience the entire world.

For manga, I've found Mihon to be nicest, by far, and it supports the API. For books, I am currently "stuck" on koreader on Android (which "only" supports OPDS-PS). I do most of my reading on a reMarkable currently, and that has no supporting client. Writing one is on my to-do list, but it's a bit daunting of a task....

Here is a pretty good list of what is supported where.

I think I have set Suwayomi to download / convert to CZB, not for Kavita specifically, but because a lot of reader apps cannot handle loose images

Haven't had any issues in that regard, so can't really say, sorry. I have two folders (Mangas and ebooks) on my NAS, and in Kavita, created a library for each.

You absolutely can edit metadata, although I personally haven't had the need yet. I use readarr and suwayomi for "obtaining" books and manga, respectively, and what they come up with is usually just fine.

I went through essentially the same thing a couple months ago. Tried Calibre (and Calibre server) since everyone recommended it.

Really disliked it. Calibre is great for converting ebooks, but has shit management and webserving capabilities.

I ended up with Kavita and am super happy. On the web client, both management and actual reading are a pleasure. Any phone/tablet client supporting OPDS works perfectly to read/download your manga/books from the server.

And a select few clients go a step further, supporting Kavita's API, which allows for 2-way sync (effectively, syncing reading progress between all your devices).

Yeah but conduit is so stale, it might as well be discontinued

Sure! As long as it's nixpkgs.

I still find it hilarious that since dd-wrt and OpenWrt are just… Linux, you could install Super Mario Bros on there. I checked, nobody seems to have tried.

Oh, definitely, but there are varying degrees of difficulty, esp. with what kinds of packages / package management you have available :D

Ah, that make sense. Is Wireguard P2P?

Yes, in the sense that each node/device is a peer. But the way I'd suggest you configure it in your case is more akin to a client/server setup - your devices forward all traffic to the "server", but it never takes initiative to talk "back" to them, and they do not attempt to communicate with each other. Unless you have a separate usecase for that, of course.

You both are perfect for each other, so don’t screw it up!
