I run ABS on my laptop, and the main issue I run into is that when my laptop changes networks (i.e my vs my parents wifi), it completely breaks syncing. I wish you could set up a server and say 'this will be available on x,y, or z ip, try them all'
The android app does allow you to download audio books for offline listening, which I use a lot when driving. Unfortunately the 'playlist' doesn't seem to just autoplay the next book. I don't like interacting with my phone behind the wheel. Not sure if it has an android auto app or not.
- Valord 1y agoUse tailscale or another private VPN to not suffer from changing networks.
- apitman 1y agoThe end-to-end principle would suggest this should be solved by the app and server.
- dp-hackernews 1y agoIf the server entry is by DNS name then all is well, if by IP address, then its not so flexible and will complain/not-work. I think there are plans to rectify this behavior in a future release though.
