Hey all!
I just came across this a few minutes ago—looks amazing. It’s the only application of its kind I’ve seen that includes text-to-speech out of the box!

Alternatively there is BookStory on for Android
Another privacy nightmare.
I’m sure a lot of people don’t mind, but I’m going to avoid it due to its collection of usage data in the privacy policy. Really wish this didn’t exist in apps that just format the contents of a file.
Especially geolocation data…
Important to note, looks like the server component is not self-hostable (and the client doesn’t E2E encrypt).
This seems to be a Foliate fork. I have a blurry font problem with Foliate and couldn’t use it for a while, but this one doesn’t have that bug. Thanks for sharing.
Is Foliate available for android?
I don’t think so. This one has Android build but it seems to be in alpha stage.
So apparently you need to sign up for Sync feature, and the Sync server is not self-hostable…
Not really related to this, but Kotatsu, a manga reading app, let’s you selfhost the sync server and I find that amazing.
It looked to me to be optional, but yeah I was curious about that too…
This was recently packaged in nixpkgs. FWIW.
Finally, I can get rid of Kindle. Time to self-host!
Is your kindle updated to the latest version? I jailbroke mine and now I use Koreader exclusively.
Take a look at Kavita for selfhosting bools!
