Foliate is lovely on my tablet, and OK on my laptop.
If you read epubs frequently, just on your pc: foliate
If you read epubs frequently, and want to also manage your ereader library: calibre
If you read epubs occasionally and want the same software for reading everything: okularI use foliate
I use Calibre. I’ve tried others but many of them are not very customizable.
Foliete FTW
Calibre’s ereader is quite good.
Readest and Foliate are the best ones
I use baca (because i3) https://github.com/wustho/baca
Sioyek.
The greatest e-book reader
Firefox with some extension when in a pinch.
Otherwise, Calibre.
I use Zathura. Not really meant to be an epub reader (ie missing ways to change the font)—afaik it just converts it to a pdf then displays the epub using the pdf engine. But it works fine for my purposes and means I can use my preferred pdf reader for epubs too.
same here! I prefer the simplicity of zathura, and whatever the default font is set to when I open the file tends to be what I want anyway, so no complaints. ^^
Calibreweb
I use epy from the command line. It’s available in the official Void repo, or in the AUR in Arch.
KOReader is goated. So many options, I use use it mainly on phones but it works on PC as well.
That’s weird. On F-Droid, it says that it was made for an older version of Android, so it can’t be updated, but the version listed is 4.3+.
It does say that but it works perfectly fine.
You could look at the screen, but there’s also braille terminal support.
Some people do tts but that’s questionable, even if you don’t recognize that audiobooks aren’t reading, why burn power doing tts when you could just dl the mp3s instead and make it easier on yourself.
“don’t recognize that audiobooks aren’t reading”
What a cringe take.
If you could read youd be very upset by my reply.
Your name is literally troll account 69.
What a loser.
Please read. Listening to podcasts and audiobooks is no substitute. When you listen you’re thinking in a different way than when you’re reading and it’s important not to lose those cognitive capacities.
My entire job is reading bud. What are you even on about. It sounds like you should go work on that cognitive capacity.
Listening to audiobooks engages a different way of thinking than reading the written word does. Listening to audiobooks is not reading.
That isn’t to say it’s not fun or interesting or a way to occupy your mind but it’s not the same as reading.
Why are you still talking.
