Kindle users tips for a newbie

[perisiana]

Sooo...my Kindle Oasis is on the way, on delivery next Thursday.
My first ereader was a Nook simple touch imported from the States in 2011, I still keep it as a relic lol
Afterwards I had several Kobos, but I never had a Kindle.
I always use Calibre to organize my library and sideloaded the books, I have already converted all my epub to Azw3, set the first page of the books with metadata, and many of my books have an ASIN (honestly I don't want to check them and fix them all now, they are 3500 lol, is there a way to do it automatically like with the isbn?).
I set Calibre to add the name of the tags to the title, I know I can add my fonts and if necessary I can customize the font sizes with the FONT_RAMP hack.
My epubs have always been set up to delete during the conversion the information about the fonts and margins used by the publisher, and I have kept the same setting for Azw3s, it's ok?
Now...I did my homework and did some research, but did I do something wrong or there is something that I could do in a better way?
Is there any interesting Calibre plugin or function that you use on Kindle?
Any tricks I don't know about?
Does convert books into KFX make sense?
And to get the "about this book" page and the link to Goodreads, is it enough to put the correct ASIN in the metadata?
Thanks!

The FONT_RAMP hack won't work with KFX, so if you want to use that, azw3 is the only way.

Is there a way to add jackets only to Azw3?
And to add Asin to azw3 with quality check?
I can select only mobi for the Asin

In bulk, I think you have to convert again, to add jackets. Either epub -> azw3 or azw3 -> azw3.

As to the ASIN, there is an option in the Quality Check "Fix ASIN for Kindle Fire", but it seems not to find the asin more often than not.

I'm sorry for all those questions, but is like a new world for me lol.

In my experience, "Fix ASIN for Kindle Fire" doesn't search for ASIN, rather you need to add the ASIN to the metadata, then "Fix ASIN for Kindle Fire" will properly embed the ASIN into the ebook.

It's been a while since I played with this, but when I used to do this, I added the ASIN directly into the OPF thus:

<dc:identifier opf:scheme="AMAZON">B000000000</dc:identifier>

(Replace B000000000 with the actual ASIN, which I looked up on Amazon.)

I think you can also add the ASIN in "Edit Metadata" (in the IDs field add amazon:B000000000 — if there's already something in the IDs field, separate the two with a comma). There may be a way to automate all of this that others can suggest.
