Manga on Kindle
On Kobo there is https://github.com/Rain92/UltimateMangaReader which works, but it’s sometimes hit or miss. If you plan on reading a lot of ongoings an Android based ereader would probably be better, then you’d have access to tachiyomi.
- Kobo Libra 2 and app like Tachiyomi

How do I install the Ultimate manga reader on Nickel? [In simple instructions]
Get the latest release of Ultimate Manga Reader (the .ZIP file that ISN'T the source code). Inside the ZIP, you'll see a folder named .adds. Drag and drop it to the root of your Kobo, merging it with the existing one that already exists.

"How i learned about Firefox MPRIS" - or - "[PSA/FYI] Add years to your life by avoiding this critical 'WTF?!?' moment."
about this time, i am a little more than intrigued and a bit confused. i use my image viewing program qimgv (github) by typing qimvg 87956_60.png and was shown a photograph of a man seemingly turning his head to look at me.

Lightweight photo viewer with frameless feature
I use qimgv, It's mostly frameless (It only has a window bar), supports going left and right through images, even sorted by date and even on a directory with 80k+ files in it. It also has some very useful features in the right-click menu and also has a folder view and is highly customizable.
- A simple and smart image viewer
- Looking for a fullscreen image viewer with vertical scrolling

Most hardcore data compression method / offline software?
I don't know exactly what you mean by "nothing", but JPEG XL is already supported for almost all image viewers on Linux installing the libjxl plugin system wide, and on Windows good image viewers like XnView, IrfanView e my personal favorite qimgv, and all most used browsers already supports jpeg xl, however is not enable by default and you need to enable it in the hide settings, but I agree that you probably will not want to use jxl if you are sharing images to other people all the time on different platforms and can't bother to decode before doing, or are using it on other devices that don't use a desktop OS, that is way I only recommend it to people that like "bleeding edge" stuff, my first recommendation is still use something like pingo if the original format is a must.

Simple image viewer with no inconveniences
My personal favorite is qimgv. It even supports videos with an additional download, which is awesome for me.

The median AVIF and WebP images are 1.5x more efficient than JPEGs, 3x more than PNGs, and 5x more than GIFs. Why aren't they more popular?
qimgv can also save AVIF
