I use Calibre to manage my ebook library. I share it across devices (and with a couple friends) using Syncthing[1], and read the books using KOReader[2] on a Kindle. I get my books either from Z-Library or by ripping the DRM off of books purchased from Amazon.

Genuinely the best reading setup.

What made you use KOReader? I've always synced between my Calibre library and my Kindle directly and that works great.

By default, Kindle is a closed box. I love it, but the ads and tracking ruin a beautiful product.

KOReader gives me a great experience, sans the privacy violations, and with an incredible amount of additional control over the device. I love it.
