Looking to remove Google play books from my life, so looking for something I can toss a bunch of stuff into and use.

Any good recommendations, with a decent UI?

Ill have to try moonreader or something similar. I tried using tachiyomi but it always fails to load. I mainly only use it on desktop for my ttrpg pdfs though so then ill just use kavitas reader

That's odd that it won't work with Tachiyomi for you. I followed the Kavita guide to connect it to Tachiyomi and it works fine for me.

The source is there, but none of my files load. To be fair, It could just be a me thing and doesn't really matter? I haven't tried it with any epub files or anything like that.

Odd... What are the files formatted as? All of mine are cbz's.

Right now all Pdfs since theyre all ttrpg books. I should grab some of my wifes epubs and throw em in, see how they load

Guessing from the local manga guide pdfs wont work, but it looks like epubs should. I've never tried those though... It may only read the images from the epub, if there are any.
