re: libgen, disappointing, libgen+ is available re: books over nostr: I have been thinking about this a lot: - NIP-23 markdown is enough for most books - converion to epub can be done using Calibre, pandoc, Google Docs I'm working on an app series that renders markdown similar to the Apple Books app

why turn books into markdown when theres formats dedicated to render books already? storying books as nip-23 events doesnt seem very pratical, especially books with images, charts, footnotes/citations something that book formats handle really well using comics as an example of reading material that couldnt work as markdown, a nostr reading app could look something like tachiyomi/mihon (a comic/manga reader) where instead of connecting to directories of hosted sources it'd just be a list of npubs reading off notes pointing where the content is hosted instead 🤔
