Calibre Replacement Considerations
I googled it and it seems that koreader has a selfhostable server that can be used to sync reading positions across devices
https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server
I used koreader years ago. I'll give it a try again. If I like it I'll download the server and check if I can make it work.

KoReader ProgressSync Kobo and Pocketbook
You need a koreader-sync-server. I think the default public server works, but you can also host your own.

Sync server
I recently discovered the Koreader app. I also found the koreader-sync-server https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server, but it has not been updated for a very long time. I am just wondering if it is safe to use this container behind the nginx-proxy-manager?

Kobo Libra 2 vs Boox Poke 3 vs PocketBook Touch Lux 3
RE:device syncing, that is correct! KOReader does sync progress across devices. You can even self-host the sync server (GitHub).
- Soon to be Boox user. Researching for workflows/apps.
- Looking for a self hosted ebook solution that syncs progress between devices

Need advice on a ebook reader that syncs reading progress
Its syncing functionality sends hashes to the sync server instead of filenames so it's better from a privacy perspective. You can also set up your own sync server if you wish.

Sync uploaded EPUB book progress across Kobo readers?
It may perhaps be possible if you install koreader on your kobo https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2019/02/16/easily-install-koreader-and-plato-on-your-kobo-ereader-with-one-click/ and set up https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server so it would take some effort. You would of course need to use koreader on your phone as well which you can get from f-droid https://f-droid.org/

Ask HN: Are there wrapper/runner programs that encrypt writes and decrypt reads?
How can a program accomplish this? by using/doing something like virtualization? emulation? syscall/API translation? e.g. like WINE?

Nix without NixOS, how doable is this and how much do I miss?
Essentially, running stuff that needs GL graphics is a bit funky... There's a workaround called nixGL though.
-
Calibre Replacement Considerations
I think installing Calibre is a good use case for installing Nix (www.nixos.org).
Unfortunately, you might also need https://github.com/guibou/nixGL to run graphical apps under Nix. It's a shell script to use the correct OpenGL library.

Nix-env apps on Debian unable to be executed via GUI KDE.
Try the NixGL wrapper.

Issue: with python-matplotlib
Are you running the Nix package manager on not-NixOS? If so I recall needing NixGL for OpenGL integration.

How do I update packages when using home-manager?
$ nix-channel --list home-manager https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-22.05.tar.gz nixgl https://github.com/guibou/nixGL/archive/main.tar.gz nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable

functional
Needs a separate program to run GUI applications on non-NixOS systems

Imagine your entire purpose being made completely obsolete by a single compiler option
IMO the proper solution to this is Nix/Guix, since they have the best of both worlds (sharing libraries where possible, but allowing different versions where needed). Shame that libGL is a mess and as such is difficult to get right in this way, and as such you need hacks like https://github.com/guibou/nixGL for most GUI stuff. That said, people are working on improving the situation.

Setting up my new laptop: Nix style
I get what you mean, but keep in mind that for every distro you're reliant on the community to get nvidia support integrated. Also if you only have few apps that require it, then the nixGL flake is not bad. https://github.com/guibou/nixGL
