My vote also for It. I will post a Tutorial to install It, but I would like to have It as option.

COPS is worth a look and has the killer feature of being able to email ebooks straight to your Kindle from the web interface.

Needs to be installed manually but not hard.

From what I understand of DietPi’s ethos, wouldn’t the open-source COPS be a better fit than the closed-source Ubooquity?

Also, Calibre’s 3+ million active users might find COPS an easier and more sympathetic server for their existing Calibre libraries: very little to learn, and little chance of metadata conflicts and the like.
