>2026>still no alternativewhy? i refuse to use any software made by a jeet
Thorium is a good alternative
>made by a jeeta jeet named Covid Goyim, nonetheless
>>108545584docker pull calibre-web:latestyou're welcome
>>108545584you are using jeet software right now
>>108545604>another epub readerNone of the alternatives do what people use Calibre for, which is taking a ton of ebooks in differing formats (and your RSS feeds) and safely and reliably uploading them to a kindle.
>>108545584try zotero.
What specifically do you want it to do?It has like a million bloat features, so if you can specify the subset of those you actually want, people can almost certainly answer for you. It does nothing unique. It just does a lot and has name recognition among low- to mid-tier technology users.
>>108545584>>108547833Koodoo Reader. It supports multiple formats, it's available on every platform. I don't see the reason to use bloated software from decades ago.
Vibecode a based cli version written in go
i don't like calibre. for some reason it feels bloated. i use foliate currently, but it also sucks, but for different reasons.
thing is you don't need one alternative, you need at least five for all the stuff calibre does. >>108551851Zotero is pretty good. I use it for papers and webpages. Unfortunately it's got tons of features I don't need and it's super slow on shitty hardware (like my fileserver)
If file managers could search and edit metadata for epubs and pdfs there would be no need for calibre... Only a viewer for the filetype
>>108554762Searching is already possible to a degree.
>>108545584Booklore is OK but it's pretty bloated
>>108545604Isn't Thorium just a reader?
>>108545607That's how you know the software has that chutzpah.
>>108545584I want to read manuals but change their fonts when reading them, is there any program thatll do that?
>>108545584>i refuse to use any softwarelol good luck anon
>>108545607>>108555994you retards make me laugh I wont deny it
>>108545584SumatraPDF reads EPUB files.
>>108545584can jeets make software, any software? Not so, according to github. Jeet contributions are non-existant. They also do not share their shitty software.
>>108553154koodo reader only send to kindle through email doesnt do management on the device like calibre can and doesn't automatically convert to format the kindle can use if your ebook is not supported
>>108545584Use YACR.
>>108559032Only a turbo retard would use something as bloated as Calibre as just an epub reader
>have e-ink reader>transfer books I pirate from libgen to e-ink reader using USB cable>read books on e-ink readerWhat is the use case for Calibre?
