Hello fellow pirates 👋
I'm sick of Audible and it's buggy app. Due to their excessive a/b testing the app stops working every second night. So I setup a selfhosted audiobookshelf instance.

However, I need my audiobooks to fall asleep and I don't want to listen to the same books again and again, so I need a new source. Do you have any recommendations? In best case in German language, in worst case in English.

Thank you in advance! ☺️

Try YouTube. It's surprising how much stuff ends up there and doesn't get deleted. And you can easily download the stuff with yt-dlp.

Wow. You're right. Just searched for "Terry Pratchett" and got a playlist with 40+ books. Btw: yt-dlp also supports youtube music links. Including albums or even artists 😉 just in case you want to dump spotify in favor of navidrome
