Uncovered and fixed a snag that was blocking serialization of custom EPUB files. If you tried adding your own book in the last day or two and saw an error, please try again!
Whelp, took me over two weeks to assemble all the issues & it's now the longest book available at 300 issues, but Edward Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" is *finally* available in Serial Reader https://www.serialreader.org/667e270a9d27cf70d3a7c9de/decline-and-fall-of-the-roman-empire/
@eythian Thanks very much! I’ll take a look.
(Twist my arm and make me finally get that Boox ereader that’s been sitting in my wishlist for weeks lol)
@eythian Thanks for the report! What device is that & what OS version are you using?
This desire to slow down - but for reading - was the top reason I made Serial Reader back in 2016. It’s very rewarding! https://medium.com/@mschmitt23/how-i-tricked-myself-into-reading-better-building-an-app-and-finally-understanding-why-my-9a47c637808a https://botsin.space/@kottke/111902927229372140
