I've been using FBreader for years, and it can use the built in Android TTS. https://fbreader.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
Based on what's on ZLibrary, various formats, though principally PDF, ePub, Mobi (Kindle), DJVU (similar to PDF), FB2, and a few others. Most ebook readers (with the exception of Amazon's own Kindle reader) can read virtually all of these, some with extensions. E.g., FB Reader , PocketBook Reader , Onyx's Neoreader (BOOX) ...

I came across FBReader which looks great in principal, but it uses a Google Drive account to sync with no other options. Also it's no longer OSS from 2015 (which wouldn't have been a deal breaker for me). Source: about 2 years ago
I use FBreader on android and PC. It's insanely customizable. I sometimes use it it double-page layout, 'though I haven't tried comics. Source: about 2 years ago
Hi! My kids were just listening to the first chapter of A Christmas Carol offered on 24 Days of Yoto. Are they seriously not offering the rest of this as a digital download? Please tell me I'm missing it. The processing/shipping time of physical cards is not awesome to my city (like weeks) so for seasonal things like this it doesn't make sense for us unless I plan way ahead. I can't imagine they would miss... Source: 7 months ago
Hello all, does anyone know of a platform specifically made to cater to schools? I think Audible used to have one, but it's either discontinued entirely, or no longer available in Europe. I've found a couple made within educational systems (e.g. UK system) but not available to other countries. The closest I've come so far is libro.fm for business - waiting to hear back from them to see if it's suitable. I'm truly... Source: 8 months ago

Whenever I buy something, I start by trying to find a DRM-free version. ebooks.com has a whole section devoted to this (https://www.ebooks.com/en-us/drm-free/) and https://libro.fm exclusively sells DRM-free. Failing that, I mostly get things from my local library (via Libby). Conveniently, those all have weak DRM, so one could still build a personal library that way. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
A slight quibble: > They require mandatory DRM for every book sold, locking those books forever to Amazon's monopoly platform. If you break up with Amazon, you have to throw away your entire audiobook library. While it's true that your purchases are tied to your Amazon account, they are not tied to your audible subscription (if you have one). That's a nice touch. Even better, the DRM is trivially easy to... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
