Is there a way to change the Library to be able to see epub files? I have KOReader installed now, but I have to go through the directory to find my epub files.

You can set a specific folder as the "home" folder on koreader by long pressing the folder where your files are located. I put all my epubs in there with moisaic viewing style.

Thanks. I did that, and changed how Calibre sends books to my device. Before it was creating folders for each author, so now I have it dump them in the home folder instead.

What for? Cuz loading pirated books is trivial?

Isn't a cracked (old, I think?) Kindle the only way to pirate KU/DRM titles? At least, that's what I recall from the last time I looked into it. There's a book I really wanted to format shift from KU since Google TTS was fucking up all the proper nouns, but I gave up. (It was an obscure book that isn't available anywhere pirated.)

Ah I wouldn't know about THAT. I just download and convert epubs from the likes of z-library/libgen, and have done so since getting my first Kindle circa 2012
