How to make an Amazon-free Kindle
(notes.ghed.in)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Couldn't have said it better myself. The UI looks ancient and cartoonish, but once you actually start using it, you don't even notice because of what it can actually do.
Nice web frontend that doesn't look like 1993:

I run that, but somehow the web database got borked when I setup the Kobo Sync. DB works fine in Calibre desktop but web UI only shows new books unless I search for them. Haven't messed with it much, but on my to-do list to figure out why.🤦♂️
