  It should be interesting to see how it plays out, indeed.

  I don’t expect the US will entirely ban all forms of content moderation. I wouldn’t be surprised if the US moved more in the direction of the EU Digital Services Act: required transparency on recommendation algorithms and some sort of NGO trusted flagger system.

  Also, similar (but opposite) to Splinternet: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brussels_effect

  I also use Kobo. It’s really easy to download on Kobo (then remove DRM if that’s your vibe).

  I’m planning on buying a pocketbook soon!!! I’ve been trying to get a sense of what the PocketBook interface is like on the device but haven’t found anything online. You don’t have a picture of the home / library page do you? Also, can you disable discover / suggestions on the PocketBook?

  What do you mean? The guide OP mentioned has instructions for MacOS. Also, the software referenced (Calibre and DeDRM plugin) are available on Linux systems as well.
