@pnadigital ich bin auf einen #Kobo umgestiegen. Im Moment lese ich da noch ein paar alte Bücher, die ich schon habe aber ich muss mir langsam über Nachschub Gedanken machen. Idealerweise Anbieter, bei denen ich EPUB Dateien kaufen und herunterladen kann. Die kann ich dann über #Calibre auf meinen Kobo laden. Das müssten natürlich Anbieter sein, bei denen die Lizenz das hergibt. Heutzutage kauft man ja keine Bücher mehr, sondern nur noch die Lizenz, sie zu lesen.

#WritersCoffeeClub September 5: “Do you track your word count? How? Why?”
Yes, via #Calibre , using the EPUB version of the manuscripts.
I find it useful to determine how large the word count of my "Master Volume" is - the collection of all the German folk tales I have translated so far (currently, it's at 723,482 words). For my book manuscripts, the word count gives a useful gauge how long they will be in comparison to my previous books.

Time for a Come to Jeebus moment: I will never get along with #calibre ebook management.
It's an incredible, capable, venerable piece of software, and my partially blind ass just continuously gets gut punched by its interface hard and often enough that I spent a chunk of this evening picking apart the broken bits of 5 separate Calibre libraries I've tried to maintain over time. All failed.
So, I now have a sanely curated set of named folders on my NAS for ebooks:

Currently, I'm struggling with the horrible 90s developer-only user interface of #Calibre, the #OPDS capabilities and general #UX of 10y+ old iOS apps (or even new ones like @getbookshelves), and how reading progress syncing just isn't an option anywhere.
Am I missing something, or is that what's currently out there?

Alguien más lee que ahora Calibre permite crear portadas de libros con fotos de menores de edad desnudas? 🤔
Una posible exageración, claro. Pero desde luego son funciones que sobran y que hacen pensar que usar un fork (CLbre) o una versión vieja del programa tendrá más ventajas.

Update to Calibre-Web: Worth it?: https://cliff538.com/2026/08/31/update-to-calibreweb-worth-it.html
Out on the road, I’ve had time to fully investigate my Calibre-Web setup. I wrote a short post about it, but this is an update on using it and whether it’s worth the setup time.

On ne va pas se mentir, l'UI et l'UX de Calibre c'est pas ouf quand même.

Dans quel monde la génération de pochette de livres par IA est une bonne idée ? D'où un logiciel qui permet d'organiser des ebooks cautionne des entreprises qui ont détruit des milliers de bouquins, pillé des œuvres en se foutant allègrement du droit d'auteur ?

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 08-31-26
We bring August to a close with one Pook-Emu Bee for the road. 1 | Understanding And Dealing With Kim Jong-Un’s Resilience (Mario Alexis Portella for American Thinker. August 31, 2026.) I attribute Kim Jong-un's resiliance to his looking at everything. 2 | Israel Continues Elimination Campaign Against October 7 Perpetrators and Gaza Terror Commanders (Vijeta Uniyal for Legal Insurrection. August 29, 2026.) There seems to be a growing correlation between having participated in October 7 […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/pook-emu-bee-links-for-08-31-26/

📚 Calibre 9.14 aduce generarea de copertine pentru e-book-uri cu Inteligență Artificială!
Articolul de pe LinuxEasy.org detaliază lansarea versiunii Calibre 9.14, cel mai popular manager de biblioteci digitale și convertor de cărți electronice open-source, care introduce un instrument inovator bazat pe IA pentru crearea de copertine personalizate.
✨ Punctele cheie ale actualizării Calibre 9.14:
🎨 Generare de copertine bazată pe IA:
• Noul generator integrat folosește modele de Inteligență Artificială pentru a crea imagini de copertă pe baza titlului, autorului și a rezumatului sau genului cărții.
• Utilizatorii pot introduce prompt-uri text pentru a ajusta stilul artistic (de la ilustrații moderne la stiluri clasice sau picturi).📚 Optimizări pentru editarea metadatelor:
• Procesul de extragere și organizare a detaliilor despre cărți (autor, serie, etichete) a fost accelerat, permițând actualizarea automată din mai multe surse online simultan.⚡ Conversie de formate mai rapidă:
• Motorul de conversie (EPUB, MOBI, PDF, AZW3) beneficiază de optimizări de performanță și gestionare mai bună a fonturilor și a stilurilor CSS embedded.🛠️ Corecții de bug-uri și compatibilitate:
• Îmbunătățiri ale interfeței utilizator și rezolvarea unor erori legate de sincronizarea cu cititoarele e-reader (Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook) pe sistemele Linux, Windows și macOS.📌 Concluzie:
Calibre 9.14 demonstrează modul în care instrumentele clasice de gestionare a conținutului pot integra tehnologii moderne de generare vizuală pentru a facilita munca cititorilor și a autorilor independenți! 🚀

Oh for fuck's sake what is wrong with these people?
" #Calibre 9.14 introduces more #AI features, including the ability to generate #book covers using AI with different cover styles such as #romance, #scifi, pulp #fiction, etc., as well as #Anthropic and #Grok backends for #Claude and Grok models..."
I love Calibre and have used it for many years but what it needs is a UI facelift, not this. 🤦♂️

So what's an alternative to Calibre that lets me organize epubs, edit the metadata, and copy them to my Kobo? I see lots of epub readers, but I almost never read them on my laptop.
I think the Kobo Clara BW just shows up as a USB device, so that might not be a feature I need. Maybe I can just organize them in directories…
Note that I don't want a server of any kind or something that only runs in Docker.

Calibre 9.8 update adds local AI support and practical fixes

I just bought my first ebook outside of the Amazon 'ecosystem'! Tracey Nicholls' An Ethics of Improvisation.
- Found it on https://www.ebook.de/de
- Managed it via Calibre
-Added it to ZoteroIt was *much more expensive* than on Amazon, but we all know how Amazon keeps their prices so incredibly low, therefore supporting an EU-based infrastructure felt like doing the right thing.
So far it seems a wonderful book.
