I'm finally making a real effort to add beets to my life. I've been hesitant because I like what I like and I (mostly) know what I'm doing, you know? I also have a lot of local independent albums that are just not likely to get tagged anyway.

But here I am. Yesterday I was able to work through:

• Implementing my preferred directory structure and naming conventions
• Adding album art (embedded and in the folder)
• Embedding lyrics
• Adding ReplyGain information

I use Navidrome as my server and have a collection of about 2000 albums.

What are some of your tips for using beets?

What cool things are you doing?

What should I be thinking about as I go about this?

Like soup-to-nuts. I know I need to document what I'm doing and I've started several times, but then I never go back and make updates. I don't know if it's just the ADHD or if I'm just going about it or thinking about it in the wrong way.

So I'm curious about:

• what you use for your documentation
• how you organize it
• what information you include
• how you work documentation into your changes/tinkering flow

Edit: Dang, folks! You all have given me a lot to read through, think about, and explore. Thank you!

I fired up Blorp this morning and not comments or new stories would load.

I also have Interstellar installed, so I tried that and I only got this message:

So I tried in my browser. I saw the humanity check ever so briefly, but then was moved along to the site. After that, I was able to refresh Interstellar and it worked. Blorp needed a restart, but looks okay now too.

Less a question than a report...
