quill VS plato

https://github.com/Kobo-InkBox/inkbox#readme appears to be the non-ddns.net version, and is GPLv3

Is it really android? that's bad. It will be also propably impossible to port to inkbox

Handwritting notes more efficient than hunting down individual characters on keyboard (aka not a touch typist).

Stenograpy much more efficient than standard keyboard typing.

Likely same reason student(s) hasn't put together open source smart glasses displaying "talk" as text to allow for real time user hightlighting (for what user wants to capture/'note').

This is way more efficient than writing/typing, as can also capture/note non-text presentations. aka inkbox[0]/epireader[1], soli[1] (finger gesture/sign the key(s)), diy open source glasses[3]

InkBox

inkbox for kobo e-readers is great. It should be possible to port to other e-readers too

if you want a better reader, consider plato or koreader one click packages from niluje: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=314220 or inkbox (https://github.com/Kobo-InkBox/inkbox). NOTE: i don't run any of these, but have tried KOReader and Plato in the past.

Kobos[1] and Pocketbooks[2] are a lot more open than Kindles. AFAIK you can transfer .epub files into both devices and these epubs are perfectly readable via the stock OS. If for some reason you find the stock proprietary OS lacking, you can install an open source one like KOreader [3] or Plato[4]

Of course you want a good way of organizing epubs pdfs mobi, and like has already been mentioned Calibre[5] is a great option.

KOReader is nice. There's also Plato[0] for Kobo, which unlike the Kobo Libra 2 stock reader and KOReader didn't choke on an .epub with the entire Bible in one xhtml file.

Good luck! If you don't like it, there are a few other, similar projects, like Plato. That one is focused on speed and simplicity, so it might actually be better suited to your purposes. It was left unmentioned earlier because it's been incredibly buggy for me, but it's there.

plato

I noticed some similarities in the source code to https://github.com/baskerville/plato/

Is there some common source for Kobo-compatable rust code that you both drew from, or was plato the original source?

On the issues page of its github site. Create a new issue with [Feature request] tag in title.

I don’t really know much about Koreader’s reader (I use it mostly as a file manager/sftp server/OPDS client), but I heartily recommend Plato to read manga! It shows the pages full screen with no margins on the top or the bottom. I haven’t tried with kepubs though, I just read my cbz directly, without passing them though kcc.
