It sounds like the Cloud Collections are as effed up as the collections implemented on the Kindle for iOS sometime back. Over the years many of us explored various ways to sort our collections. So now we end up with a large number of duplicates, for example:
  • .History
  • -History
  • 1 History
  • History

Most of my collections stored in the Cloud are from long ago devices I no longer own. We need a better system. We need Amazon programmers who can actually effing read and understand what collections are and how to make them easily manageable!
I've never seen a 5.4.1, and I checked as late as yesterday. I am assuming this was something internal at Amazon and never released to us.

And yes they are just as effed up, but I am not going to complain too much, this is better than what we had with the non-working import collections feature. This cleanup should be a one time fix, but if you keep your wifi off, you are going to have to deal with the ignore/connect option if you make any collections changes on a device.
