I created an account, but then installed KOreader on my Libra 2 and just read books through that. It's FOSS, more customizable, and supports OPDS feeds which can do pretty neat things like finding articles from HN[0].

- sotix 3y agoI read that KOreader is unstable on the Libra 2[0], so I haven’t installed it yet even though I would like to. What has been your experience running it? [0] https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/8414 https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/8414
- BHSPitMonkey 3y agoIt's been perfectly stable for me since I got the device a few months ago, but I also don't read for hours at a time like the other commenter. It's possible that it leaks memory after viewing several hundred pages or something like that.
- beej71 3y agoI had it installed for a while, and there were fairly frequent crashes (i.e. about once every 8 hours of reading) requiring a reboot. But it was _almost_ worth it. It's a really great reader, especially for reading PDFs. After some software update about 6 months ago it got halfway uninstalled somehow and I did a factory reset and haven't reinstalled it yet. I recall reading that it's not on KOreader's side, and they can'tfix. :(
