Yes, that's the only browsing. But it can search the Calibre Metadata file. A bit clunky, so I read novels on a Kobo using the Kobo metadata library to browse as it's perfectly supported by Calibre. Everything else is dramatically poorer and worst is file browsing.
Kobo:
Filter by read, reading or unread.
Sort by title, recent, collection, series, author etc.
Subtitle display
Search is faster than KOReader and lists hits of title, series, author, subtitle.
About 6,700 novels on my Kobo.
I can't imagine what you think the shortcomings of pocketbook app are.
My tablet has a 256 G SD card and that has a copy of every document since about 1994, including 1000s of PDF scans of books, magazines and service information (mostly late 1800s to 1980s).
My old 2016 Laptop is 1T byte. My current laptop is 256 G SSD and 2T HDD. Workstation is 512G SSD and 4T 3.5" HDD.
Storage is cheap.
Several backup drives 1T to 6T.
Old server for backups is 1T + 2T drives.
I only used mainframes 1969 to 1973 and then personal micros from 1979.
