Recommended E-reader? [more in comments]
An Android tablet and the CoolReader app. For me, it's simply the best eReader experience available. It's incredibly customisable. The only downside is it doesn't support PDF or AZW3, both of which can be reformatted to your preferred file type with Calibre anyway. Source: over 1 year ago

Ebooks
There are already some very good ebooks solutions out there so there's really no need. Calibre for the backend and database management, Calibre-Web for the front end, and Openbooks for content. Source: 5 months ago
Kobo / Calibre-web / ePubs - how nice do they play?
I have a carefully-curated calibre-web library that is 100% epubs. I have a kindle to which I usually send books from calibre-web with the 'send to e-reader' button, and it works great. Source: 5 months ago
Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0
Worthy of note the Calibre-Web[0] project, which builds atop Calibre library to provide powerful web interface. The project and its maintainer deserve some love and support. [0] https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
