    And those projects will either never have Kavita+ features, or will die out because they do not get enough one time donations from people to keep up those features. The Kavita devs are litterally providing everything for free, other than things that cost them money monthly to run. You being but-hurt about that is nonsensical.

    Alright, then while you contribute to open source projects dying out I guess I will continue being reasonable about it. Immich had a shitstorm around it because they used rather deceptive wording at first, Kavita is pretty damn clear about what its methods of monetary support are.

    Also, there is nothing stopping you from hiding the button via uploading a custom theme which hides the button.

    Kavita+ is for features that have an ongoing cost for the devs. They have to spend their own money for running the servers hosting the backend of the k+ features, as well as for access to APIs. They are not features that could have possibly been free.

    Also, I’m not sure why an unobtrusive donate button is a downside to you…







  • You seem to be under the impression that the “buckets” in this case are all or nothing. They are talking about partitioning the drives and raiding the partitions. The way he describes slowly moving data to an ever increasing raid array would most certainly work, as it is not all or nothing. These buckets have fully separate independent chambers in them that are adjustable at will. Makes leveling them possible, just tedious and risky.
