My setup
One textile containing everything I want to read.
Here I downloaded 1200 Unicode text, UTF-8 text files with a light (1) curl https://curl.se script. I then (1) fold https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/fold and (1) cat https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/cat them together.
The reader itself is st the suckless terminal https://st.suckless.org/ using the pager https://greenwoodsoftware.com/less..
The pager is where the magic happens, less can do essentially anything as far as paging through text goes.
see man (1) less for more info
All are Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS)
I dislike any proprietary technology and will use FLOSS alternatives when available. Every program listed allows for not only a very clean workflow as everything is text, so I can easily make the output of one program the input to another https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy, but is also massively customizable, both with and without recompiling. But this is perfect for me.
