Software for manga/book reader
Software for manga/book reader
Hi, I'm searching something for manga/books.
I'm currently use jellyfin, but I don't really like it (to import metadata it's very complex and mechanic thing), there are some good alternatives?

Which OS?
On Android, Moon+ Reader is pretty good.
My wife uses the Amazon Kindle app on her Android tablet. You can use it for non-Kindle books by sending an email to a special email address for your Kindle account: https://www.amazon.com/sendtokindle/email.
Calibre is useful for this. It shows an easy to use "send to Kindle" button, and can convert books in ePub, mobi, etc formats to the format that works best in the Kindle app (AZW3).
If you want a web interface for Calibre (eg to run on a home server and download books when you're away from your computer), Calibre-web works well.
Moon Readers cloud sync is amazing if you read from multiple devices. I think they recently added book syncing too.
The problem with the send to Kindle option is email attachment size limit. For books it's fine but manga and comics are usually too big.
My Kindle is old enough that I was able to jailbreak it and install KOReader so I can just download from my Calibre server directly via OPDS. Otherwise if it's too big for email you'll have to do it over USB I think.
