Hi, I’m searching something for manga/books.

I’m currently use jellyfin, but I don’t really like it (to import metadata it’s very complex and mechanic thing), there are some good alternatives?

Removed Kavita since they started Kavita+ and the floating donate button, which can only be removed if you pay. Never again

I use Komga instead

Kavita+ is for features that have an ongoing cost for the devs. They have to spend their own money for running the servers hosting the backend of the k+ features, as well as for access to APIs. They are not features that could have possibly been free.

Also, I’m not sure why an unobtrusive donate button is a downside to you…

Don’t like plus features or paid features at all. I donate frequently to a few open source projects, but I decide if I pay and when I pay and how much I pay.

The donate button is floating, that is annoying and even if you donated, it won’t go away. You need to buy a subscription. Sorry but no, there are better softwares out there

Immich got a shitstorm because of the license button in a corner without any paid features. Now it is now called support (which is better imo)

Alright, then while you contribute to open source projects dying out I guess I will continue being reasonable about it. Immich had a shitstorm around it because they used rather deceptive wording at first, Kavita is pretty damn clear about what its methods of monetary support are.

Also, there is nothing stopping you from hiding the button via uploading a custom theme which hides the button.
