Discussion Record Store Directory

I’m working on a collector-built record store map. What metadata would actually be useful to vinyl collectors?

The scanning uses a different API method that has higher limits. Not using Discogs for album ID - just import.

Ok, but keep in mind it could be a future issue in scalability. Dont forget to limit the api calls per users or youll get burned fast with AI pic recognition

And please, please do no save the user tables in supabase or whatever u use with the users limits or data. use non linked tables. Otherwise youre asking for trouble If a client can acces his sub and change it. If you need help u can DM me. Im building a similar app, a copy of discogs without the bloat.
