E-Book-Reader: eine Übergangslösung
Wem die kommerziellen E-Book-Reader zu unfrei und zu stromfressend sind, kann sich mit einer Reader-App auf dem Smartphone behelfen.

@4bz i liked #ploum's essay about the two webs:
https://ploum.net/2023-08-01-splitting-the-web.html
i think it makes sense to resort tl a shitty web browser for the shitty JS-powered capitalist web; and whenever possible use #ytdlp or #tubular for hostile sites like #youtube;
and then use other web browsers (or rss readers, or ...) for the enjoyable web. those web browsers might not even need JS. these include #offpunk, #lynx, #netsurf, #dillo, #links, #edbrowse, #librera, #eww.
@Tutanota for android, #librera is my favourite web browser. pleasant reading experience and offline web site cache by default.
#javascript was a mistake anyway.
I finished getting my 170+ #eBooks off #Amazon and into #Calibre and stripped the #DRM from them. As an interesting aside, something that I was aware of but hadn't really considered is I can have Calibre scan news websites daily and create #ePub books to read on my device.
Now I'm just trying to find the right reading app to use on my device. The leading app right now is #Librera, but I miss having shelves / groups in it. But I love the integration of #ProjectGutenberg and #InternetArchive.
Vou probar isso de ler um livro no telemóvel para reducir o tempo em redes e grupos de Telegram...
O escolhido foi 'Martillos o ciudades', de Miguel Espigado (@miguelespigado). A app, Librera FD.
O livro pode-se descarregar de graça aqui https://miguelespigado.com/libros/
1. Vamos a enseñar sitios peculiares donde toca vender libros cuando eres #librera
Empiezo yo.
El Palacio de la Magdalena, en Santander. Este lugar lo construyó la ciudad de Santander (con el dinero de los ciudadanos, claro) para regalárselo al rey Alfonso XIII y que después, su hijo Juan, padre de Juanito, se lo devolviera a la ciudad a cambio de 150millones de pesetas. ¿Buen trato, no? (Sigo…)
I read a lot and I annotate #ebooks on my Android ereader. But whether I'm using the open source #Librera or the closed source NeoReader, I cannot export the notes, bookmarks and annotations in a standardized way that keeps them connected to the actual book they refer to. Wouldn't it be great if annotations could be stored _inside_ the #epub so both remain connected? Or if there was a standard for exporting them that allowed us to import them in another reading app and get them re-linked to the correct locations in the ebook they refer to? Considering how long the epub standard has been around, it feels odd that's not been solved yet. Or has it?
Alternatively (or additionally), I'd love an epub reading app that automatically syncs highlights and annotations to #Obsidian. I know that Raindrop can do it for bookmarks. Which app can do it for epubs?
@argumento yo también! Además que #librera me ha gustado para leer cualquier documento. En especial porque se puede adecuar el tamaño de la letra (ejm ajustar texto pdf) y que se puede invertir colores en modo noche.
Dear hivemind,
Can you recommend an #AndroidApp that is free and open source software (#FOSS) to annotate PDFs?
In the past I have been using #Librera (via #FDroid) and like it a lot, except for the the annotation feature, which I find unusable, unfortunately.
I can't seem to find any alternative at all and am tempted to turn to Google Play, but I would really like to keep it FOSS. Primary use case is on a tablet, on phone too would be bonus.

Nueva adquisición #librera
Mi lectura actual
Recién ayer estaba buscando alternativas al Moon Reader. Y di con #Librera en #Fdroid. Está espectacular, tiene muchísimas opciones, muchas más que el Moon incluso, que usaba hace 5 años y por más opciones que había revisado no había encontrado ninguna que se le igualara.
Compartan esta publicación, me sorprende que una app tan buena fuera tan desconocida acá, incluso en el círculo de amistades lectoras
