Out of interest, how do you guys read your ebooks ? Tablets ? E-readers ? Laptops ? Just interested to see who does what.
Kobo e-readers
Personally I use a Kobo Libra, as it supports sideloading books manually, supports various formats (epub, pdf, etc), has a nice backlit e-ink display, and physical buttons for page turns in addition to the touch screen.
Also doesn't support Amazon, which is always a plus. Nice bit of kit.
I send them to my kindle. Shameful, I know, but it's what I got
I use a mix. Sometimes, I'll read stuff in the
foliate
app on Linux from my desktop outputting onto a big screen tv.But I also do an old kindle while lounging on couch/bed and Librera reader on phone (android/f-droid) when I'm on the shitter.
For the most part, I load different things on each and just jump back and forth between several stories. Keeps things interesting and no need to sync bookmarks and whatnot.
Pocketbook e-reader
Boox e-reader. I’m able to just log in to my Calibre web server and download the book right onto my device.
Tablet with ReadEra. Easier to read with customization and no fuss with reading all file types.
I use the Books app from a downloaded file on iOS
