Majority of web apps could just run on a single server
Oh man I absolutely love the work that you guys do. I'm actually in the process of learning Ebook production using the 'Step by Step' guide on your website. I'm essentially learning it all from scratch as I have little to no programming/SWE experience (I learned a bit of Lua because of KOReader[1]) but the technical side of ebook production has always fascinated me enough to keep learning.

E-books are fast becoming tools of corporate surveillance
I read that KOreader is unstable on the Libra 2[0], so I haven’t installed it yet even though I would like to. What has been your experience running it?

Conversion from epub to kepub, and related Calibre use
I'm using Kobo Clara 2E (6" screen size), and it is unpleasant to read PDF and CBZ files (comic/manga) since Kobo only provides zoom and orientation mode. I installed KOReader on my Kobo. It has more setup to display those files way better. The views of PDF in KOReader and Comic in Koreader. I read Epub files in Koreader to maintain its original format.
I only read kepub files on my Kobo Clara 2E (kobo stock). I use KOReader to read PDF, CBZ (comic files) and epub.

Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0
It doesn't try to solve the same use cases that Calibre does, but I built an open source (EPUB only) manager / reader / statistics tracker called AnthoLume [0]. It mostly stemmed from me reading in KOReader [1] on my Kindle, and not having the ability to sync the progress to my iPhone / iPad.
It's got metadata matching, support for multiple users, and statistics tracking which allows me to have a "Leaderboard" that shows how fast you read (words per minute). Fun competition between my wife and I (that I'm 100% losing). It's a Progressive Web App and utilizes a Service Worker to support 100% offline reading as well.
There's a demo server [2] (creds are "demo" for both user & pass).
- I wanted to get the Libra 2 but is it good for reading manga without much hassle?

The Case Against AI Everything, Everywhere, All at Once
You can still choose automation. The easier route for me is to use wallabag to save the article. Then on my remarkable tablet I can grab a very readable document with https://github.com/koreader/koreader.
The other option is to use https://github.com/danburzo/percollate to convert a webpage to a nice document directly. I use both tools depending on my needs.

Alexandria: A minimalistic cross-platform eBook reader
It's pretty good. You can highlight a passage and then it pops up a box for you to type in.
However, Lua doesn't support native Android keyboards - so you have to use a virtual keyboard https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/7423

Show HN: News2reader – Readable articles from HN and Pocket on your e-reader
Hi! I recently became the owner of an e-reader, and wanted an easy way to get web articles from Hacker News and my bookmarks onto the device, on-demand, for easy reading.
I'm using KOReader (https://koreader.rocks/) on my device, and like lots of e-book readers it allows browsing online catalogs of books (e.g. from sources like Project Gutenberg) using the OPDS protocol. news2reader is a self-hosted Node application that acts as a "virtual" catalog, connecting to link aggregators instead of a local database. When you select a web article from the list, the application will (try to) fetch the page, generate a "readable" version with images, and serve that up as an EPUB on-the-fly.
I've found it works pretty well for my needs, but improvements and enhancements (e.g. support for more aggregator services) are welcomed as Pull Requests. If you want to know more, the README has screenshots and setup instructions (using Docker or pure Node+Yarn). Hope it's useful to some of you!

Is the pocketboom era the right choice for me ?
No i don't have any special lag. But i also don't use the default reading app, i use Koreader. I think the normal reading app also doesn't have much lag. Most modern eReaders have much less than 5s lag.

I believe this plugin for calibre is what is used.

Hi folks, I have yet to be successful in using Calibre to convert from kindle format to PDF (for personal use, just want to mark things up). Is there anyone who might be interested in walking me through this? I’d compensate you for your time, of course. I’m on a MacBook Air. DM if interested.
From the DeDRM page.
- I’m trying to remove the DRM file from my kindle books but when I try to ‘customize plugin’ to insert the kindle elnk” it crashes. every single time?

DeDrm stopped working Calibre version 6.0.0
As a stab in the gloom, I think it has to do with the Qt library. On the Calibre change log it mentions that Calibre 6 now uses Qt 6, and Qt 5 plugins may not work. In the Github page for the DeDRM project, the file config.py is trying to load Qt 5. It also looks like DeDRM hasn't been updated since about the time Calibre 5 came out.
