Thank you to the author of the guide and the creators of Calibre, the NoDRM and KFX-input plugins.

Exported all my ebooks into epub. Now I need to find a managed "cloud ebook locker provider" and find a way to export all books on Google Books.
I use Dropbox to back up all my stuff, not only ebooks. I do have a paid account, as no cloud provider has a free plan with enough space for my files.

I have a paid cloud storage, I was thinking more along the lines of managed cloud service with a web UI and other things. But now that I think of it, having a simple cloud folder also has it's benefits. I just need good clients.

The problem I have with cloud storage is the apps they use are CRAP!

I want apps that allow a one-way sync instead of a forced two-way sync.

GoodSync has a Storage option.

GoodSync does everything FFS does and then some, like Block Level Transfer, IOS and Android clients. But GoodSync itself isn't free nor is its Storage option.

After 26th Feb they will be:

  • Kindle for Mac v7.24 if you can get it
  • An E-Ink Kindle
  • Kindle for Android

Personally, I'm moving to buying from Kobo.
I believe I have an e-ink Kindle (10th Generation Paperwhite with Firmware 5.17.1.0.3 registered on 26th August 2019). I have found a kfx file that I wanted to use as a test (a book recently downloaded via USB and converted on my partner's computer). I added it to my books in calibre and tried to convert it and got a message that no supported source format was found. I cannot find a KFX plugin either Am I looking at the right file on my Kindle? What is my way forward?

You need to have the KFX Input and DeDRM alpha release plugins installed and configured.
