I have bunch of textbooks, and a lot of lecture notes and notes from colleagues, all in PDF format. What is a good way to classify, manage, store, and read these PDF files? I am trying calibre-web, but it seems difficult to find applications to connect to it.

      The same reason why immich fucking rocks.

      Search pictures by “ocean” or “moon” and get shown related pictures.

      If those doc managemnt solutions can also do OCR it’s a doublw win.

        Hmmm. Maybe I should try that then. Never actually understood why people like these managers as I was always satisfied with the directory tree for organization.

        Well maybe besides music. There beets fucking rocks. But in the end I use it also only to sort music into a directory structure.

          I configured my immich to sort the photos by YYYY/MM/#original-photo-name#_assetnumber

          Should I leave immich, I could still recover or view my files

      Benefit of data managers: Tags for easier searching and grouping, grouping that is folder agnostic, easily choosing a thumbnail, and in text focused ones you can usually search the content of the files from one location and easily look through the results for the correct one, etc.
