You said you wanted to go over to the DARK side...😎 Kiwix JS PWA/Electron 2.2.5 now with built-in DarkReader 👇
Please note the lightweight browser-extension version of Kiwix JS also has dark themes, but not yet the DarkReader plugin. We have opened an issue for that.

Search a document/file on Macbook M1?
If it's Kiwix Desktop, then I'm afraid I can't test that, as I don't have a physical Mac, and Browser Stack doesn't allow me to install executables. However, it might be worth raising an issue here.

It's been out for a couple of weeks, but in case you didn't see it, check out Kiwix Desktop 2.3.0

Not enough storage available
Ah, I did a bunch of experimenting and figured out a few things.. One, https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-desktop/issues/868 affects versions prior to 2.3.0. two; I was using version 2.2.0 or such. And three; it still seems to always download into $HOME no matter what I set the download path to, so if my "download path" has 400G free but $HOME only has 10G free, I can't download anything 10G or larger.

How to open multiple .zim files?
You can have several tabs open at once but I don't think you can open several zim files in once click. But that would be an interesting feature, maybe you should open a ticket at https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-desktop/issues

Please, how do I make hardlinks like on Windows tablet? My company requires a legacy app -- Kiwix -- but it doesn't support external storage on my tablet, even though the OTG drive shows up fdine in everything else, so I am trying to hardlink like in Windows or Linux. Android uses Linux kernel&FS?
A good place to ask would probably be r/kiwix or, better, https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-android/issues (or https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-desktop/issues)
