An Application for Downloading all your Kindle books
Runs under Python 3. Unfortunately it requires the Chrome web browser.
I've already downloaded the Kindle books I don't want to lose, but I'm half tempted to try this under Linux and see if it works. https://defragg.com/bulk-download-kindle-books/ |

Would Chromium do? The "Chrome only" webpage to transfer music to a NetMD Minidisk over USB works on Chromium on Linux.
See https://web.minidisc.wiki/ EDIT Actually I see that now it claims to be for Chromium based, but not Vivaldi. Last edited by Quoth; 02-23-2025 at 08:00 AM. |

This is very similar to the Python script on GitHub in one of the other threads. On Linux (Arch anyway) there is no need to install ChromeDriver if you already have Chromium installed. The chromedriver binary comes with the Chromium package.

I am not able to get this to work for me. The chrome window shows up, but it just has a url of "data:,". Attempting to go to the amazon site anyways, and logging in, works, but nothing happens, and then the script dies with an error.
Once I log in, and go to https://www.amazon.com/hz/mycd/digit...ksAll/dateDsc/, and wait ... Code:
Press Enter to continue...
