I don't need something "just like Matrix". E2EE in Matrix sucks and we had to remake several rooms on the FAF Matrix because a bunch of people couldn't read anything. I need something that actually works most of the time and doesn't have constant and myriad problems. the fact that most of fedi uses Matrix is even more regrettable considering the plethora of mature alternatives that work well and are stable.

    I've got a mate in Tortuga who has an Audiobookshelf server loaded up with books from a few mostly fantasy series. if there are any FAF flotilla members (Quokk.au included) who want an invite to my mates server, DM me on Matrix and I'll see if the old scallywag can ship you one.

    Audiobookshelf has clients for Android, as well as one for iOS that's currently in closed beta. it also has a web UI for use on PC.

    this is for Fediverse Anarchist Flotilla members only, as well as Quokk.au users. this booty is not for the wider fediverse.

    I've got a mate in Tortuga who has a Kavita server loaded up with fantasy books, mostly from the Forgotten Realms franchise. if there are any FAF flotilla members (Quokk.au included) who want an invite to my mates server, DM me on Matrix and I’ll see if the old scallywag can ship you one.

    there are many clients for PC, Android, and iOS that can download directly from a Kavita server, and the books are all in EPUB format so they will work on any ebook reader worth the coin you paid for it.

    I'm sure my mate would be happy to add any books you wanted to read to the server if you ask nicely, so don't hesitate to do so. my mate is very generous like that.

    I've got a mate in Tortuga who has an encrypted PasteBin alternative that they are opening up to the wider fediverse. in case I need to explain it to you for some reason, it's like PasteBin, but encrypted. you can set expiry, a password, and Burn After Reading. it's a good way to share text documents, and without the link generated when you upload, nobody can read your pastes, including the server admins.

    not much else to be said.
