I love what’s achievable with Free Software.

I can sync reading progress across my e-reader with #koreader, my phone with #readest and I’ve now hacked together a way of syncing them with #emacs Nov mode. The code needs cleaning up a bit and I’ll put it on Codeberg soon.

@newbyte Well in the end the problem was solved by using #readest
Guess I might really use Readest for ebooks this time, got an annoying "could not open book bug" in Foliate (Linux app) after a Bazzite update. Hope the image gallery feature comes out in the future!

"Yeah we support #KOReader sync.....as long as you do not self host it that is not planned. No we wont fix if it is on a custom port"

The more I look at
#Readest the more it screams wolf in sheeps clothing with how it is "open-source" software

I’m a big fan of #koreader but I recently found #readest which I think is better suited to non e-ink displays. They’re also working on being able to sync with KOreader.
