Ebooks: Ereader or phone? (lemmy.world)

Just wondering how people read ebooks.

Do you have a dedicated Ereader device such as a kindle or Kobo, or do you use an ebook reader app on your phone?

I have Kobo Clara BW but I find my phone is more convenient. I do the majority of my reading on my iPhone using the Kobo app.

However if I’m flying out on a long train journey, I tend to bring my Kobo, mainly because of the much better battery life and bigger screen (with better reading ergonomics).

Im glad you like it as much as i do. I scowered the internet for hours! Looking for a FOSS ereader that supports customization, text to speech, and as many ebook formats as possible. Remember to star the project and donate to the devs if possible. They update super often and have made something better than apps ive outright paid 5$+ for.

    I have been using it for a few hours now and I can see that it's still in quite early stages of development. For some reason it doesn't use system default tts on my tablet. A lot of the menus are laggy(on both android and linux desktop). Has very little options. No way to import a full folder. No opds support yet and no RSVP.

    I will stick with Librera for now as it also just started getting maintenance recently.
