I assumed everyone was using Calibre, but recent searches suggest that isn’t always the case

I am using Calibre-Web mostly - but I have run into issues with thumbnail generation after my collection hit around 500000 books. I am just over 600000 now, but a large swathe don’t have thumbnails unless I do a manual metadata search. I should probably look for an alternative, but at this point I CBF.

Over half a million books? I’m so envious!
