Out of interest, how do you guys read your ebooks ? Tablets ? E-readers ? Laptops ? Just interested to see who does what.
Kobo e-readers
Personally I use a Kobo Libra, as it supports sideloading books manually, supports various formats (epub, pdf, etc), has a nice backlit e-ink display, and physical buttons for page turns in addition to the touch screen.
Also doesn't support Amazon, which is always a plus. Nice bit of kit.
I send them to my kindle. Shameful, I know, but it's what I got
Boox e-reader. I’m able to just log in to my Calibre web server and download the book right onto my device.
Pocketbook e-reader
I use a mix. Sometimes, I'll read stuff in the
foliate
app on Linux from my desktop outputting onto a big screen tv.But I also do an old kindle while lounging on couch/bed and Librera reader on phone (android/f-droid) when I'm on the shitter.
For the most part, I load different things on each and just jump back and forth between several stories. Keeps things interesting and no need to sync bookmarks and whatnot.
I use the Books app from a downloaded file on iOS
Tablet with ReadEra. Easier to read with customization and no fuss with reading all file types.
