Saluton, new here! I have everything automated except magazines. I am not familiar with scraping, was hoping there would be something automated. I have Pressarr set up at the moment but can’t recommend. LazyLibrarian also had a lot of problems.

    There are restrictions on purchase in my state, but it’s legal to go across state lines to buy the higher capacity ones… oh wait you meant the foldy books with glossy pictures

      Magazines are easy to find, but I haven’t found a way to automate monthly issues. Search and download is all manual and I had to create my own cleanup script once downloaded.

      Pressar has made an attempt to automate but it relies on torrents (individual magazines are rarely torrented) and Internet Archive, which only has very old issues.
