I canceled ongoing donations to several projects based in the US and stated that my reasons for doing so was US policy against my country. It doesn’t matter if the dev or project lead supports those policies or not, I refuse to contribute to the US economy if I can at all help it.

Can this handle plugins? I use a modded DeDRM on my Kindle Unlimited books, and so require plugin support.

Royal Road has its own issues such as author groups on Discord colluding to drive up member’s “Rising Star” rankings, and drive down the stories of authors they don’t like. Also, very inconsistent moderation policies that highly favour certain authors over others who just so happen to be friendly with mods, etc.

I also don’t believe it’s open source, so I’m not sure how it’s really any “more free” than any other fanfic platform out there in the fediverse sense.

NexusMods is working on their new post-vortex mod client, which does have Linux support. It can be found here on github.

That’s stupid. Nothing stops you from just installing regular Ubuntu if you love snaps so much.

There’s Librera FD, on F-droid. It’s the open source version of Librera on the google play store. I believe it strips out the google api/cloud stuff, but its db /reading status/etc are all easily synced via Nextcloud (which is what I do). The only real negative I’ve found with it is that it’s search for text in books is slow compared to more popular reading apps like Moon+ Reader.

It is still possible if you have an old enough Kindle. I have a 1st gen paperwhite and can just connect it via USB to my PC and pull books off the kindle with Calibre and then remove the DRM.

Though if you’re wanting to remove DRM from Kindle Unlimited books, you’ll have to actually edit the DeDRM plugin code, as by default its set to not let it be run on KU books.

Wait why the hell is lemmy.world federated with Meta anyways? That seems… stupid?
