Foliate.

Foliate. Scroll down for how to build or install.

Installed Foliate (from deb file https://github.com/johnfactotum/foliate/releases). Nice reader for EPUB, as f now found all features I tried to find: settings for margins, one/two columns, dark theme, zoom with reflow, view as pages vs scrolling. Not registered to open files from file manager after install, but I guess I could add manually.

the reader is called foliate but it only works on linux. this brother's software is free as in freedom

There's also Foliate, but it's still Linux only. Windows builds are possible (other GTK programs have done it) but still ongoing research.

Thanks for pointing out which package update caused the issue, this could be fixed through next release of webkit2gtk. Keep an eye on https://github.com/johnfactotum/foliate/issues/797

You should try Foliate. I recently found about this after using CoolReader for years and have never looked back.

I've always had sync issues with iCloud Drive when storing developer projects and related things there. It ends up stuck or confused or conflicted but tries to resolve the merge conflicts opaquely and it's hard to know there's a problem in real time vs until later when you find something broken. I keep all dev things out of iCloud after getting burned by this enough times over the years.

To OP: Consider a repo dotfiles setup like using Chezmoi or similar. Transitioning to it was less friction than I expected and the only downside really is having to remember to commit changes across devices.

chezmoi (<https://chezmoi.io> or <https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi>) has a couple dozen txtar tests. They are both amazing and completely frustrating to use, but I don't think that there would be a better way to test most of what chezmoi does without them.

Tom Payne (the creator and primary developer of chezmoi) has added some extra commands to the txtar context which makes things easier for certain classes of testing.

Thanks, I never heard of it before and it looks really interesting.

However, it seems that it does not cover all of my needs: https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi/discussions/1510#discussi...

once i need a more complex solution (eg. for machine specific stuff), i'll probably switch to chezmoi which has more features and native windows support

I’ve been using chezmoi, which uses git, to manage my dot files and have different branches for these types of experiments.

https://chezmoi.io is a dotfile manager that is runs on multiple OSes (including Windows) while handling differences from machine to machine, allows you to store your secrets in your password manager (so you don't have to store secrets in your dotfile repo), and it even supports the NO_COLOR environment variable. Check it out! Disclaimer: I'm the author.

There's a comprehensive list of the most popular dotfile managers at https://dotfiles.github.io/utilities/.
