I recently found out that instead of just using online sources, you can also use something you can host yourself, like Komga, in Mihon. I'm just wondering if there's an advantage to it that I didn't think of because the only things I can think of are:

  • Progress is synced over multiple devices
  • Online sources can suddenly go offline, your self-hosted service won't

Assuming you’re talking about the OPDS server built in to komga, it worked great for me with Panels… until it didn’t. When my library got large enough, say 500gb or so, OPDS didn’t seem to be able to work as well as just pulling up the browser.
