Do you use an Epub program or do you download your books as PDFs? If so, what program do you use to read your PDFs? I don't want to use Adobe Acrobat cause I want to be able to go full-screen.

What app do you use on your phone or do you not need one?

How do you guys read seriously on your phone? So many distractions. Wouldn't it be better to buy an ebook reader?

I find readera very good. Its default font and theme have some sort of book feel to me. I like vertical scrolling(zoombrain).

If I download pdf I want something that looks exactly like the real deal but most of these pdfs are converted from epub, at that point I might as well just read epub anyway.

I forgot to sell it's killer feature. Inline footnotes instead of popup footnotes. I fucking hate popup or other mode of footnotes. Longer footnotes you'll be moved to it's actual location at the end of the book but shorter footnotes will be at the bottom of the page. Very helpful when I'm reading Greeks or War and Peace, doesn't take me out of the flow.

Seconding ReadEra here. Best mobile reader I've found. It's so good that I bought the premium just to support them. Plus they recently added an option to make it an audiobook using AI's voice (you can also add your own) so that you can continue the book on a walk or drive if you want to.

Using Foliate, because I am a gnigger. Works really well and above all it lets me customize the display.

I like epub format but only because I don’t like Adobe Acrobat.
