Any solution to the open/close bug?

Steps to reproduce: since the last firmware update, often when I open a book it will display a blank page instead, and say that I am on page 1 of 1. Attempting to go to the next page will close the book and mark it as completed. If I re-open the book and it does load (whatever it does or not seems random) it will go back to the page it should have in the first place, and progress will go back to displaying normally.
Workaround: none that I can find, other than reopening books until things work normally.
I'm having the same problem with my Kobo Glo. I do not use Calibre, but my books are all sideloaded. I tried to talk to Kobo support, but after giving them my height and blood type, I gave up and told them I would buy a Kindle instead. (Lies.)

Any solution to this open/close bug? Deleting books from Kobo (too many files)? Not using books on micro SD card?
