jfa-go VS audiobookshelf

Seen this post? https://github.com/hrfee/jfa-go/issues/141 he added Google smtp support to the unstable build a while ago and works fine. Not sure he ever added it to the stable build.

Look into jfa-go. I run it on the side and it hard-integrates into Jellyfin and adds a lot of account management stuff and the group/policy specific config you're mentioning

It is a bit tedious if you don’t do it every time you make a new user. You can do some mass editing with jfa-go, but I don’t know the details because I’ve never used it before.

You can create different accounts for each person, like profiles and so... And there's even a project (albeit abandoned as per their GitHub) that lets you have a sign up page. I'm not sure if that's what you are looking for

I also recommend trying jfa-go for managing Jellyfin users. Allows you to create a template user and kinda tie things together if you attach an email. Then, as the other reply said, use Jellyseerr (which is 10x faster than Ombi) and your account woes disappear...mostly...

maybe you can work with https://github.com/hrfee/jfa-go to make it better?

jfa-go is really good, and has a lot of the same functionality. It is what I have been using

Jfa-GO

A similar tool for Jellyfin is jfa-go.

For anyone who's game to run another service for audiobooks, I've found Audiobookshelf to be pretty good: https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf

A spotlight on AudioBookshelf, an audiobook and podcast streaming server

The basics are same across most any container, you probably need to map some network ports, and map some storage paths, and then you are pretty good to go. There can be more than that, but those are kind of the minimums. For instance, the example compose file for audiobookshelf does just that, maps a port, and some storage and that's about it.

Move away as in find another audiobook vendor? Or simply retain access to your existing collection?

Audiobooks from Audible can be downloaded via the UI. They will have DRM, but it's possible to remove.

If you have audiobook files without DRM you can listen to them via any app that plays audio, but there's also at least one OSS project that aims to fill audiobook UI niche [1].

Using Audiobookshelf (https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf) and hosing my own podcast with an rss feed. It works just perfect in other podcast apps but in Pocket Casts, that used to work, I can't no longer see new episodes starting from about a week ago. I have never been able to stream the episodes either, just download and listen, this also works in iOS Podcaster app.
