Describe the Feature/Enhancement

I would like ABS to connect to http://abs.local when connected to my host's wifi network; and connect to http://abs.tail otherwise.

Why would this be helpful?

I discovered this feature while newly using Immich. That app has the ability to connect to its server based on whether I'm connected to a particular wifi network. They call it "Automatic URL Switching."

This would help download faster while connected locally, and/or solve certain loopback issues.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Here is an example from Immich:

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.9.81
