  • I didn’t have ads either but being able to use KoReader is a good enough motivation for me.

    • You can customize it a lot to your own liking and they do something clever with page changing that it seems a lot more responsive.
    • Another thing is I used to have to convert epubs to KFX to get nice hyphenation and good typography but on KoReader you seem to be able to customize all those typography things with whatever epub you throw at it.
    • Also, I have a local Calibre OPDS endpoint, you can add that in KoReader and download books over wirelessly. WiFi needs to be on when doing that but with a few tweaks you have read only root partiton so Kindle shouldn’t update.

    Overall there are a lot of steps to it, if you’re comfortable with your current setup it’s not worth the hassle/time.







  • Backtrack/mentioned lists show you a list of pages that mention the page you’re on, so you can see how it’s related to other pages.

    It’s hard to find one solution that fits all my use cases, I have to admit.

    And by actual hosted wiki, I mean Dokuwiki, Wiki.js, Bookstack, Gollum, Mkdocs, etc. that renders the syntax into HTML.I like that they make my “notes” appear more immutable and allow me to access them through any browser. This applies to content like glossaries, food/drinks recipes, homelab documentation. Things you put in once and forget.


  • Is there a real use to a graph-like visualization like this? Or is it just for pure fun? I find backtrack lists or mentioned lists a lot more useful. When I used to use Logseq, the graph view would be quite slow when I had a hundred or so files. Nowadays, I just use orgmode for more temporary, short stuff and an actual hosted wiki for more permanent, long-written stuff.
