Yes, I have the cloudLibrary app authorized with the same Adobe ID that I use for Adobe Digital Editions. However, I've found that I cannot have both apps authorized with my Adobe ID on the same computer. Authorizing one will mess up the authorization of the other. So I have the cloudLibrary app on my laptop and ADE on my desktop.

I was able to use Overdrive and CloudLibrary under Windows 7; Under Windows 10, I cannot.

I'm not sure what that it is Win 7 vs 10, or different applications versions. I am using ADE 2 on both.
I have ADE 2 on a Windows 8 desktop and the cloudLibrary app on a Windows 7 laptop. I haven't been able to have them both authorized with my Adobe ID on the same machine at the same time, Windows 8 or 7. I haven't tried with Windows 10.

I don't have a Nook here with me, but if I understand you correctly, I would just have to download the Overdrive book to my computer and side-load it to the Nook? Would that work without ADE on the computer?
I haven't ever tried downloading Overdrive books directly to a Nook, and I don't know if you can get to the web browser on the 2019 Nook Plus without root.

I use ADE to download Overdrive books to my PC. If you have another way to download the Overdrive EPUBs and have them connected to your Adobe ID, then you wouldn't need ADE. But, at least on stock unrooted 2019 Nook Plus, you won't see an ACSM file. But once you have the EPUB on your computer, you can just copy the file over to the Nook drive without needing to transfer it via the app.

Yeah, they have PC, Mac, iOS, and Android apps. No idea if you could run the PC app under Wine. You have to make sure you set it up to use your existing Adobe ID otherwise it generates one for you. I imagine only the PC and Mac apps let you actually set a specific Adobe ID.
