I am one of those people who think Calibre is too ugly to bear (and sluggish, and takes too many clicks etc) to the point where I do all my ebook management FROM THE COMMAND LINE. That should tell you all you need to know about the aesthetics of Calibre.


Marius,

I really like the formatting of your article (as of Mar 30, 2015). I wonder if many of the people who complained are used to surfing the web with their browser maximized at all times?

Sadly, you have such a different ereader usage pattern than I do that you mostly address things I don't care about (read-it-later, about-the-book, bookstore features) or disagree with you about (the quality of Kobo's text rendering and layout)
