Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (July 2025)
I'm still working on Kavita, an open source, self hosted book/comic media server with a strong focus on metadata. Been in deep developing a custom annotation/highlight system for epubs.
Annotation ideas: https://github.com/Kareadita/Kavita/issues/3890 (since from research, seems there is a strong need for this)

Ask HN: How much better are AI IDEs vs. copy pasting into chat apps?
I tried Cursor as I was excited it used Tree Maps for RAG. I tried it for 3 different medium asks on a medium sized project (https://github.com/Kareadita/Kavita).
I was extremely disappointed. It recreated enum files with the same values, tons of changes, overall I rolled back.
I use copy/paste into ChatGPT/Claude a lot. I will stick with that. I control the scope, I control what I copy or how I take the solutions.
I stand by my belief that AI cannot work on medium to large codebases. I know we see vibe coding as a trend, but those are usually greenfield applications.

KOReader: Open-Source eBook Reader
If anyone is interested in helping Kavita, an open source self hosted reading software, finish off the Koreader Sync support, please take a look at this PR. It's 90% complete and just needs some finishing polish. The contributor got busy and hasn't returned for some time.

Foliate: Read e-books in style, navigate with ease
I think Calibre advocates forgot what it's like to setup it for the first time and what a messy ugly process it is for new timers. A containerized version needs VNC access to set it up and perform GUI un-intuitive interface UI actions https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-calibre/#applicati...
I've used https://www.kavitareader.com/ but it's not perfect either, this space could be "disrupted" by a Plex like product with opensource + licensed offerings but the target market is pretty small I think.
