Readerr have been removed everywhere on rreading-glasses readme, maybe there is something related to law issues ? Also I didn't understand what is rreading-glasses and why you need it
Yeah, it's probably a legal thing, rreading-glasses is just metadata for books, completely legal, but readarr legality is less clear, so maybe they're trying to prevent issues.
Say you want to grab a book by Isaac Asimov, you type the name of the book in readarr search bar, readarr contacts a metadata provider to show you cover images, author, date, etc. Then when you select the book readarr uses that metadata to search for downloads and ensure you're getting the correct book and not another random book with the same name.
The problem is that readarr uses a closed source API for it's metadata, and it's constantly offline, which makes it impossible to use readarr. Luckily they allow you to customize the URL for the API, and rreading-glasses is an open source implementation of that API that you can use as a drop in replacement.
I'm hoping someone will have some info about what happened because it seems strange. What does this mean?
I believe R-- stands for Readarr and G--R-- stands for GoodReads.
