I’m currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I’m currently out of ideas, so I’d like to heard if from you guys.

Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.

    Another idea would be a e-book reader. I don’t like Librera, because it acts more like a image viewer and less like a eBook reader.

        Is there a way to get colour there? B&W bums me out… I’m on GrapheneOS so have MoonReader (install google services, install, disable network on it, uninstall google services, and you’re good) but ebooks is one of my major use cases on mobile and everything FOSS sucks in comparison…

          Can’t answer that question as I am only using KOR on my ereader, which only displays black an white :D What would be your usecase for color in ebooks?

            I like green on black on my phone, nice screen, good for the eyes. I’d love to sync between that and my kobo, but not happening at the moment. Currenly read new things on the kobo and old faves on the phone, it’s fine, but could be better…

        I really don’t like gesture-based tap-zone control on KOReader. Is it possible to switch to buttons on-screen?

        I like this. Only downside is that it isn’t Material You ready, but I don’t care about cosmetics as long as it work.

        Edit: no release available, which is a bummer.
