Hi all! In recent years I didn't do much reading but I am getting back to it.

I have upgraded Calibre. I was at 2.85. I am now at 4.23. I skimmed enough threads to see that v5 has changed code, so I have held off on that for now since I'm not sure which plugins, etc. that will affect.

I have a Kindle Keyboard and a K4 (non-touch). I have also just ordered an Oasis thanks to Prime Day. And this is probably where my questions come in.

With the new Oasis (3), what do I need to know about formats?

Most of my library is epub and mobi files. Most of those mobi files are likely from Amazon azw files that changed to mobi on import to Calibre. The epub files are a combination of purchases from other sites or conversion from mobi to epub.

On a few newer purchases, I have azw3 files?

What files will the Oasis have? Does it introduce a new format to my library?

Is there anything I should specifically do/remember/look out for re: any of these formats in Calibre?

Also, are there any specific plugins I need in order to manage the Oasis or any new file formats in Calibre?

Basically, anyone have any guidance for someone who has been out of touch for several years? What are the current best practices for importing purchases in Calibre? Download to Oasis and then connect and import? Or download from Amazon choosing the transfer by USB option? If transfer by USB option, should I continue to use my K4NT as the target or can I choose the Oasis as the target?
