I've written a new blog post about building a new web app to patch Kobo devices. (Look, I went down this particular rabbit hole, okay?)
It's also a bit about reverse engineering, too, building upon existing projects. Check it out here:
Okay, so, the new Switch 2 patch is exactly what I was hoping to get from my original Switch games.
Docked resolution on handheld is a BIG deal. Image quality is a LOT better now for my backlog.
Just did a deep dive into the Kobo custom modding rabbit hole.
I made an experimental web front-end for the Go `kobopatch` to patch your Kobo via the browser: https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/kobopatch-webui
I've also made it available via: https://kp.nicoverbruggen.be
It currently only supports the latest devices and latest software version, but it works! Leverages the File System Access API, and does all the work clientside.
(Still need to write a blog post on it.)
Experimental Web UI for patching your Kobo firmware. Static website, downloading firmware and patching runs completely clientside. - nicoverbruggen/kobopatch-webui
@Margos Currently, Newsreader (and Readerly) are my new favorites.
I'm not sure about the best settings for KOReader. Experiment away, I'd say!
(I suspect you will need to bump line height to 120% or higher for the best possible results, because the line spacing is relatively tight -- which was done for improved Kobo compatibility.)
I've updated my post on Readerly: https://nicoverbruggen.be/blog/creating-readerly
... and I've created a new release: https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/readerly/releases/tag/v1.3.1
I've also been pushing various improvements to my blog -- links that go to external sites are now indicated as such and open in a new tab!
Recently, I've been replacing batteries in some of my older devices (or getting my devices serviced when I lack the tools) which means they last longer.
Manual repair makes for a fun experience, too. Pictured: me doing a battery replacement for my original 2017 Switch.
