My experience with 2.0
I updated to 2.0 yesterday and got similar problems to what people mentioned here. I'm thankful this forum exists to let me know how to get around some of the issues. I've read one book since the update and overall, I'm thinking about going back to 1.9.17. My experience:
Couldn't create shelves or shortlist - eventually resolved
Someone suggested logging out and then logging back in. I had to do kobosetup again but it was fine after following the setup steps. I lost my original shortlist but I have a similar list on my computer anyway, so that wasn't so bad.
Hyphen issues - workaround
I was getting a hyphen on the 2nd line of each paragraph, for every paragraph. The book I was reading was an ePub that was fully justified. I played around with the font and the justification setting but that didn't make a difference. Opened another ePub that was fully justified. Also played around with the settings but that didn't help. I left the setting to left-justified.
I opened two more ePubs, the last of those was not justified. I went back to the two books that were fully justified and the issue was resolved! Started reading a different ePub today which is fully justified and hyphens were back. But I just opened an ePub I knew wasn't justified, went back to the ePub that had all the hyphens, and it was fine.
Slow page turns
This is the reason why I want to go back to 1.9.17. It was really annoying how much slower the page turns have gotten. All my books are ePubs, not on an SD card.
One thing I liked in the update was the advanced settings on the font because I was able to make the font look a bit darker.
