That said, it’s much easier to jump around now by using the scroll indicator or tapping some position to jump to (randomly tapping if you want to find something by serendipity). Search remains the best way to find something if you know some part of title or author in any library with more than a few hundred items.
I think they would do well to offer a List view without thumbnails, not just so more items can display, but so that they could use larger text for the title/author. And if you are using personal docs you don’t have to see a bunch of things without cover images (of course it would be nice if it Kindle would just generate thumbnails for them like it does with the Kindle apps).

I have over 5000, mostly freebies, acquired since I think 2009. I usually have 1xx in my Kindle at any given time. Even so, I really want the option to choose for myself to turn off thumbnails if I prefer. And for them to figure out how to avoid repeating an entry from bottom of one page to top of the next page. Rather than fact checkers maybe we need more work checkers and design checkers.
