Just popping in to say that I recently read half of one book in Nickel on my Sage after KOReader couldn't compensate for some weird line-height and line-spacing in the CSS. I was AMAZED at how how much better the battery life was under Nickel. After 2-3 hours reading, the battery was at 75%, when it would have been well under 50% in KOReader. BUT

I missed the reading experience in KOReader too much, especially the gestures. I missed it so much that I opened the book in Calibre, edited the CSS and reloaded the book back on to my Sage. I can literally count on one hand the number of books I've edited the CSS for, which shows how much I was missing my KOReader.

The feeling of relief at being able to read again in KOreader was overwhelming. It made me grateful once more for the KOReader devs, and glad once more that I have a Sage and not a Libra 2. Thank you all!
