macOS

Cozy for macOS is currently on beta. It's tested only on 10.14 Mojave so far and there are some known bugs:

no integration in notification center or any other desktop integration really
media keys are not working
dark mode requires 2x switching in settings + is not loading automatically at startup
large Cozy.app

You can download it here: Cozy 0.6.4 beta2 for macOS

Q&A

I have imported wrong files and cannot get rid of them:

Delete the following folders to reset cozy (this will loose all saved progress):

~/.local/share/cozy
~/.cache/cozy

I can't uninstall the Flatpak:

Try

flatpak uninstall com.github.geigi.cozy/x86_64/stable

flatpak uninstall --user com.github.geigi.cozy/x86_64/stable

Thanks to @Meresmata

I have my audiobooks in a location that is not accessible in the Flatpak sandbox:

You can override the flatpak settings and allow access to a path (e.g. /media) like this:

flatpak --user override --filesystem=/media com.github.geigi.cozy
