Annotations directory filling with useless files

JSWolf · 12-09-2023, 06:52 AM

Can calibre be made such that nothing is written to the annotations directory unless we actually annotate something? My directory was full of files that most likely will never be used again. I did not annotate anything. So why is it we need these files when they just sit there and take up space?

I don't see why they have to be created without any annotations being made.
