I haven’t documented my specific setup, but there are a few YouTube videos I followed to get my personal setup to a state that I’m happy with:

I’ve had a great experience migrating from Goodreads to Obsidian with the Book Search plug-in (uses the google books API). I have a template file for exactly what data I want and how I want it structured (including quotes and notes), and I use Dataview to make custom queries on my book collection for read/to-read/reading statuses. It works very well, looks nice, and is all stored in text/markdown so I own the data.

Slightly off-topic, but do you use Proton’s other products? If so, would you recommend any of them?

1500 users isn’t a ton, but the request queue for new accounts was likely very large due to the Reddit exodus. So they were probably concerned about future capacity. They also likely received a ton of traffic from non-users just seeing what the hype was about.

To give some perspective on Rust efficiency: I worked on a project that converted a pretty straight-forward Python backend to Rust, and the memory usage was cut by about 20x. This has pretty big implications for cloud hosting, as memory is often pretty expensive (for AWS, at least). Server costs will be very critical for lemmy servers since funding tends to come from less reliant sources (vs VC funding, business revenue, etc.).

Readwise/Reader and that syncs to Obsidian. Been loving this combo.

I’ve been working through Solenoid by Mircea Cartarescu for the past few months. It’s a monster of a book, and some of the writing is really great (very Kafka-esque). There’s unfortunately a bit of awkward sex writing, too, but it hasn’t pulled from the good writing by any means.

Wow, AnuPpuccin looks great! I just switched from Catppuccin. Thanks for the link!

I would prefer it to be open-source, but at least the data format (markdown) is ubiquitous and stored wherever I want it to be stored.
