Hi!
I want to get more into reading but books can be expensive and bulky.
I thought I’d buy a Kindle (or similar) since those screens are pleasant to read on, but I don’t know if there’s anything specific I should be looking for piracy wise.
Apparently amazon has added support for epubs so I’m hoping it’ll make it easier to load with my own downloaded books?
Also, the version names/models of kindles are crap.
Edit2: I’ve decided I’ll buy a paperwhite kindle (2020 version). I found a 2nd hand one, like new, for 80€ with a screen protector + magnetic cover. This way I’m still not supporting amazon :)
Edit: I seem to have posted this same/similar question yesterday but I have no recollection of doing so. If this is something you’re interested have a look at that post.

Ah, okay. Assumed the commenter above had some fancy networked way of syncing them, but that makes sense.
There’s also a content server built into Calibre but I’ve never used it.
I use Ubooquity (a Java app with a web interface) that I share books with family and friends using the kindle browser
Edit: Just noticed a ‘wireless device connection’ option in the Connect/Share menu
Well….”fancy” is a strong word 😋
