[theducks] I would rather go for WORKING and RELIABLE, than making it 'pretty'.
Amen BROTHER! If it ain't broke be happy with it.
From what I saw there were several "Great suggestion! A conversion feature is on my to-do list and will be supported soon. Thanks for the input!"
I've invested, I guess at least 2 decades in Calibre, and unless Covid decides he's wants to come to my house and put material into my library for me. I find my time puttering in Calibre quite pleasant.
I've been using Calibre since around 2.0 or 3.1 or there-a-bouts. I find Calibre easy to use, easier over time to make changes or whatever. I've made lot's of library rebuilds and choices throughout that time frame. And I find I'm happy with Calibre's looks and actions.
I think Covid mentioned a while back the library ran nicely to around 150,000 books. Two months back at 224,000 making any cell change was taking around 5 seconds to save. So I have divided my library into two. Everything but the comic books will remain in the main library. If the time comes to divide another choice from the main library, I can do so in one simple move and walk away while Calibre handles the grunt-work, no matter if it takes over a week for it to drop the materials in.
Plus, I am a tad lazy, the one change I keep hoping to see some day is being able to use a slider switch to re-size the book covers in the cover grid view. That would be much easier than inserting the size numbers. Then I honestly could not think of wanting for anything else.
Have I mentioned that "I love my Calibre?" Plus Calibre has been a fixture in my life almost a quarter of a century while other library's came and went, usually pretty quickly.
