How do children address a non-binary parent? in c/[email protected]

If I were a nonbinary parent, I’d definitely go with “elder”.

"I don't know" how much Borderlands 4 will cost, Gearbox boss says, but it had "more than twice the development budget for Borderlands 3" and "it might be" $80 like some Nintendo and Xbox games in c/[email protected]

I’d be willing to pay that. But honestly, I’ll probably wait until it’s on sale.

They probably are, but that’s because of selective breeding.

Request for desired features on a self hosted ereader app. (self.selfhosted)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/43297441

I just started working on a self hosted Android & iOS ereader app. I’d like to know what features you would like to see if you use this kind of app.

Current Planned Features

  • Support for EPUB, TXT, and HTML ebooks.
  • Syncing over WebDAV. (Bring your own server. I’m not hosting people’s pirated libraries.)
  • Multiple libraries (a WebDAV server is a library), and multiple users per library.
  • Current progress from offline reading will get synced when back online.
  • Dark mode.
  • Custom fonts and themes.
  • Text to speech.
  • Keep awake.
  • Orientation lock.
  • Open source. (GPL license)
  • Native apps using React Native.
  • Animations can be turned completely off.
  • Really good e-ink screen support.
  • Tablet and phone sized device support.

Background

I use a Boox Palma, but sometimes I don’t have it with me, and I’d like to read on my iPhone.

With the current ereaders I know of, there’s always some downside. Syncing costs money, rendering is janky, page turn animations can’t be disabled, themes cost money (really???), no cross platform support, etc.

I want to learn how to build native apps with React Native, so I’m using this as a learning project. I’m not trying to make money on it, so it’ll be open source, and you have to have your own WebDAV server with all your ebooks on it to sync.

Non-Planned Features

Some things I just can’t do or won’t help me learn, so I’m not going to do them.

  • PDF support. (Maybe in the future, but not the initial version.)
  • Web app. (I don’t want to host it.)
  • Kindle app. (React Native doesn’t support them.)
  • Syncing over anything but WebDAV. (I’ll be using WebDAV properties, and I’m not interested in doing any other providers.)

So I’d like to know, what are some features you would like to see, and what are the pain points you’ve experienced with your current ereader apps?
