Ask HN: Best Open E-Reader?
Kobos[1] and Pocketbooks[2] are a lot more open than Kindles. AFAIK you can transfer .epub files into both devices and these epubs are perfectly readable via the stock OS. If for some reason you find the stock proprietary OS lacking, you can install an open source one like KOreader [3] or Plato[4]
Of course you want a good way of organizing epubs pdfs mobi, and like has already been mentioned Calibre[5] is a great option.

KOReader Document Viewer for E Ink devices
KOReader is nice. There's also Plato[0] for Kobo, which unlike the Kobo Libra 2 stock reader and KOReader didn't choke on an .epub with the entire Bible in one xhtml file.

General Discussion Thread - December 5, 2022
Good luck! If you don't like it, there are a few other, similar projects, like Plato. That one is focused on speed and simplicity, so it might actually be better suited to your purposes. It was left unmentioned earlier because it's been incredibly buggy for me, but it's there.

Show HN: A VNC viewer for eInk devices capable of 30 FPS when writing text
I noticed some similarities in the source code to https://github.com/baskerville/plato/
Is there some common source for Kobo-compatable rust code that you both drew from, or was plato the original source?

To all my Plato readers, question about fit to page/width. Is there any way to set zoom mode to fit to width, but getting page view instead of continious ?
On the issues page of its github site. Create a new issue with [Feature request] tag in title.

koreader auto shrinks my image?
I don’t really know much about Koreader’s reader (I use it mostly as a file manager/sftp server/OPDS client), but I heartily recommend Plato to read manga! It shows the pages full screen with no margins on the top or the bottom. I haven’t tried with kepubs though, I just read my cbz directly, without passing them though kcc.

Kobo / Calibre-web / ePubs - how nice do they play?
I have a carefully-curated calibre-web library that is 100% epubs. I have a kindle to which I usually send books from calibre-web with the 'send to e-reader' button, and it works great.
