In a recent communication, Amazon has alerted Kindle users about significant changes set to take effect from next month. The notification pertains to the phasing out of support for sending MOBI (.mobi, .azw, .prc) files through the “Send to Kindle” feature, starting November 1, 2023. This change, as News18 pointed out, specifically impacts users attempting to send MOBI files via email and Kindle apps on iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac.
KFX supports hyphenation and many more advanced features - the plugin exploits the official Amazon app for publishers to convert any open format into KFX, giving you all the features of Amazon store bought books for free.
Still bit a noob, I am wondering if I should also install calibre through bottles (I imagine bottles sets up some sort of sandbox that only those installed through it can use its files).
Don't know if it really matters, though. 8GB of storage holds a lot of books, even if they're illustrated, and that's what base-model e-readers are coming with.
It matters to me, since I find the differences in sizes to be stark when I compare them. I already find page turns on my Paperwhite a tad slow (even with page refresh off). So converting all of my books to kfx (which was my initial plan) seems like a bad idea.
That makes sense to me. Access speed and disc space are often inversely related. It's like pre-optimizing the file for faster consumptionater by adding more information at "compile time" vs "run time".
