What Hacker News says
6 sourcesI am using koreader on my ereader and KOreader has a native support for https://wallabag.org/. They are both fantastic opensource projects, whenever I like to read a blog post I am sending them to my wallabag and therefore I can easily have them on my ereader too.
Also the fact that you can install different plugin on KOreader and customize it in a way you like is fantastic.
for example just check:
- https://github.com/doctorhetfield-cmd/simpleui.koplugin
- https://github.com/AndyHazz/bookshelf.koplugin
Or with Lua you can develop your own plugin for that. to people who wanted to jailbreak their Kindle I can recommend these two links:
- https://kindlemodding.org/
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qtk7ERwlIAk
All in all I am supper happy with KOreader and can't imagine to use anything else
In KOReaderCheck out this plugin: https://github.com/AndyHazz/bookshelf.koplugin
I had the same problem and someone here shared the plugin, it does the job very well independently of your file structure and nesting.

I had the same problem with the missing Home Screen view and that solved it: you can see all your books no matter how deeply nested they are
In More Tailscale tricks for your jailbroken KindleSame on my kobo. The only thing I was missing was the kobo like Home Screen where it shows all your books no matter how deeply nested. But of course there is a plugin for that: https://github.com/AndyHazz/bookshelf.koplugin
The only thing I’m missing now is a stylesheet or something to make a spot on the right edge be free of text as that’s where my external page turner clips (for hands free reading) and it hides part of the book’s text otherwise. If anyone has any clue on how to do it, lmk!
In More Tailscale tricks for your jailbroken KindleThere are several plugins that give you a library view based on metadata instead of folders and filenames. Two examples that are both great:
