Kobo

Anyone know of a way to formate comics to fill most of the screen on the Kobo Libra? I'm able to import them no problem but I can't seem to get the pages to fill the whole/most of the screen. Any help or advice is much appreciated!

I've just bought a new colour Kobo and I'm trying to set up everything so I can send pages from Firefox to the Kobo for reading, but it ~~is~~ was not working, ~~so I would like some advice~~.

When I set up Pocket on my phone or my PC, it wants me to register with my Firefox id. Then I can save a page from Firefox and it turns up in Pocket.

When I am on the Kobo and I try to link it to Pocket it just gives me a code on the Kobo and expects me to type that into my phone. ~~But then the page from Firefox doesn't appear on the Kobo.~~

~~I think it's created two Pocket accounts. That's the only explanation I can think of. But I'm not sure, and I can't see any way to fix it.~~

edit: it turned out that my test page did not work in Article View. I've tried several other pages, and they have made it through to the Kobo.

What books have you read recently &/or are reading?

Just ordered this one from Amazon and it’s good!

It doesn’t have the standing ability so if you’re looking for that wait longer. I’m just looking for something to protect it when I throw it in my purse.

It’s got a pen holder and magnetic wake/sleep.

I haven’t been able to tell from any of the reviews yet but does the stylus only work with Kobo Books? Or can you write on any book?

I’ve already preordered. I was ready for a new reader and color seems cool.

I’m a bit bummed about how dark it looks but, it looks pretty good otherwise. I mostly read at night anyways.

Coming over from the Kindle Paperwhite. Said screw Amazon recently. Canceled prime, Kindle Unlimited.

If anyone has any tips or advice, feel free to share. But just wanted to say it feels good getting out of the Amazon ecosphere.

Guess my previous post was a bit premature.

I think the title says it all.

I saw a mention of an Omnivore integration I might check out, but it depends on Pocket still at least existing in the OS, and I would prefer to stay up to date. That and I am already proxying the Store through Calibre-web.
