According to the official Discord, “ACX has made the decision to close Booklore and step away.” Some contributors are working together on an unnamed replacement project.
For those not in the loop, Booklore was an app for selfhosting book libraries. It had a nice UI. It was able to store metadata separately from the download files, so you could have an organized library without duplication. In recent weeks, there have been conflicts about AI code, licensing, and general Discord nastiness.
RIP
Edit: The discord, website and github are all gone.
No, if people use AI for organizing the shopping list they use to buy components for the server my favorite FOSS program that I’ve never contributed to or donated to, then they must be burned in effigy and cursed to the ends of the earth. I’ve never built a thing in my life, but if I did, it certainly wouldn’t be with AI.
You’re welcome.
