I'm looking for a non-amazon reader for e-books. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Open to all suggestions but ideally something that doesn't tie me into a particular platform and lets me read indie-published as well as mainstream published books.
I'm an author so have no issue paying for ebooks through online bookshops. While I am trying to avoid giving money to amazon, I am very happy to keep paying authors and publishers!

I've been using Kobo for years, and epub as my preferred format because it's universal. You can convert to epub using Calibre, which is free, and which also creates a good library on your computer. No e-reader seems to sort well. -

@beach I don't want to give you advice, but I can tell you what I do. I buy books in EPUB format (I avoid proprietary formats), preferring DRM-free ones, run them through Calibre (that's why I just say "preferring," it doesn't matter), and then do what I want with them (usually I read them on my iPad).

@francina1909 ma la domanda corretta è?
Perché ci facciamo mille menate quando la nostra esistenza è una briciola nell'universo ?
Fra 10-20-30 anni non ci saremo più, fra 100 non saremo nemmeno ricordati, quindi godiamo del ora e adesso, siamo troppo piccoli per avere un impatto, pure minimo, su qualsiasi cosa. Tutto quello che ci fa stare bene è buono, quello che ci sta fare male è male, a prescindere.
Il resto serve solo ad ingrassare le tasche dei psicoanalisti...

@mathewi@journa.host I'd say less that the social web is dying, it's quite alive and well on the Fediverse.
I'd argue that the social web as it currently stands is being abandoned by the very companies that made it.

@filippodb @lalchimistadigitale @spettacoli beh già nel 1985 non è che fosse così al top. È una produzione italiana al risparmio e non sono neppure così sicuro che abbia mai visto la pelle di un tamburo. Ma il groove, anche se sintetico, funziona e il ritmo vagamente in controtempo potrebbe addirittura ricordare (bestemmio) Blue Monday dei New Order

@fucinafibonacci @lalchimistadigitale @spettacoli quindi il buon sandy lo piazzava ano a caso con batteria o pianola a tracolla a seconda del progetti tanto era tutto in playback anche questo credo...
Però invecchiato malissimo il video.

@filippodb @lalchimistadigitale @spettacoli non lo escluderei: erano tutti e 2 della scuderia Cecchetto 😀
