This is my second read. I really liked it for the first 60 chapters. I dropped it the first time because the author was dangling 3-4 male leads for like 20 chapters straight. Just pick one already, my god. This happened after the timeskip, so it was 60ish chapters of Loretta and Melody, then it became a reverse harem of just Melody.

The second time, I tried to just skip chapters, but the harem seems to keep going without end. I barely even see Loretta after the timeskip.

So, can someone just put a nail in this coffin and spoil it for me so I don't do a third read in the future, lol.

It's such a slow slow slow burn. But such a great story. Honestly, I'm really surprised by how well the story and the FMC have developed. I thought it was just about a little girl who has poor health, who eventually gets better, but>! her mental health is not something you really think about until much later on.!< It's a great metaphor.

It's funny, charming, and very cute. It has many of the same cliches of childcare manhwa, but I'm really enjoying it regardless.

One very different thing is that the birthmom is >!apparently still alive and remarried to another guy, and they have a kid together now.!< This was after the dad left for seclusion. I'm only on chapter 30, so not sure if that's just a rumor.

Skipped a few chapters. Seems to start picking up again around chapter 48?

Kinda disappointed the relationship of the two girls story-wise kinda drifted after the short time skip.

While they fixed the Android problem with titles not loading, it's still very slow to load compared to titles not in a collection. I was already pretty satisfied that they finally fixed it after more than a year of waiting. But they now seem to have finally fixed the slow loading as well.

I'm hoping that maybe this fixes other issues that are related to pseudo-collections. Like the actor/director/genre rows in the Recommended pages, which are very slow to load on large libraries. By the way, if your Recommended pages take a long time to load, just disable those rows, and it'll load blazingly fast again.

This is great because right now, in order to get this information, you'd have to use mkvmerge/mkvtoolnix. That means apps that rely heavily on MediaInfo-generated JSON, like r/TinyMediaManager, r/Tdarr, r/Sonarr, r/Radarr, etc, will hopefully start parsing this information. Not to mention all the little scripts and plugins that use MediaInfo will now have this data.

I've seen too many people over the years say that the last automatic backup that's available to them is several years old, and they only noticed it when they needed to restore from backup.

If your database is corrupt, the automatic backups will fail. This is in order to prevent overwriting the last known backup that is still intact.

On the mobile app you can enable notifications when backups occur and when Plex detects that your database is corrupt.

I know quite a bit about Plex, but... this has apparently been a thing since 2022. /sigh, it even shows when the next episodes are coming out.
