I also made another big announcement...
I loved my first taste of Kobalt with beta 7, truly a thing of beauty that had me thinking about no longer needing KOReader. So your announcement came as a surprise, while it was even more surprising to see that someone on GitHub responded by basically posting my own reaction 1000% verbatim

Fwiw, I don't mind the reader taking longer to load - having accurate page counts and no pause between chapters feels much nicer to me. Speed isn't my top priority when reading, and I'm not changing the layout often enough to worry about a few seconds whilst a charge is supplied. Hopefully this provides a nice alternative for those who want it, but I hope the whole book rendering remains an option.
