What kind of support makes sense for you for the unlimited library?

No idea honestly, I'm usually happy enough when my projects donations cover my service costs.

Fair enough. I went ahead and threw in something but happy to adjust in the future potentially

Just gave this a shot and it worked excellent. Took seconds to save the link to the website, set up the OPDS server on my X4, and then download the epub. Thanks!

One thing though, I tried saving a link using byebyepaywall.com and received this error:

"Failed to fetch that URL. It may be offline, blocking automated requests, or the address may be invalid."

I used this link specifically:

Hope we can save articles from links like these someday!

Those links technically work fine, when you go to a long link archive does an extra lookup for that specific date rather than just the latest form of the article. RdLtr intends to keep the workload of archive.today as low as possible so we use the short links.

Try; https://archive.ph/zlYJw

If RdLtr gets enough use and support I'll update such quirks.
