Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands.
-
Same. I find ebooks for my family or we use Libby. I wouldn't know how to buy a book on my kindle if I wanted to.
-
Cool guess I’ll download anything I bought from Amazon before the cutoff then it’s been ages and I can’t remember what’s there o7
-
My wife uses Libby and books go directly to her kindle.
-
Turns out it really is archiving when government decides to go renegade and start deleting everything they disagree with or wipe from history. Archive away beautiful data horders.
-
library genesis exists, people.
anna's archive?
-
I have never more strongly considered a subscription to annas archive than when that new dropped.
-
Its also available as an app on all android based e-readers.
-
..and for those on Linux there is 'DeGouru', a tool for de-DRMing internet archive books that are lending-restricted.
A bit annoying in that it is somewhat sensitive to the Python version one has installed but there are ways to manage that which I am not qualified to advise on.
-
Overdrive's being phased out and being replaced by Libby according to the 2 libraries I frequent. I wonder if it will still be supported on Kobo OS once the website and apps are shut down?
-
You literally just said the two things I wished Kindle allowed me to do natively.
I hate the fact my Kindle store books will bundle by series, but my non-kindle books will not.
-
I heard there are ways to jailbreak all Kindles...
-
Nope. Mine has never connected to the www
-
According to their site and a couple others, they have recently started selling again and with what looks to be some variant of Debian on it.

Quick shout out to oceanofpdf
-
My solution was to just redownload all my books from z-lib after I bought them already.
-
A lot of books money goes to not rich people though
-
How would that help here? The only thing Amazon is removing is the ability to download your purchased eBooks to your PC.
-
Repeat after me!.... En-shit-ti-fication!
-
It helps because you regain that feature when you jailbreak...
-
And I have a bigger reader, since most of my library are pdf/djvu scans and they'd look unreadable on a screen any smaller.
